Something interesting is happening with $BTC right now: buyers have defended the recent flush, but Bitcoin still hasn’t convincingly reclaimed the $80K area.
BTC is trading around $79K, after dropping toward $77.6K and quickly recovering. That rebound matters because $77.6K is now a clear short-term demand zone, while $79.5K–$80K remains the main battle area.
The bigger picture is still constructive. Bitcoin remains above its 20-day and 50-day moving averages, while RSI is around the low-to-mid 60s — bullish momentum, but not yet an extreme overbought reading.
But there’s one thing I’m watching closely: leverage.
BTC open interest is elevated and long positioning is dominant, while funding remains positive. That means another rejection around $79.5K–$80K could trigger a quick long squeeze if support fails.
For me, the clean setup is confirmation rather than chasing:
Long idea:
Entry: $79,700–$80,000 after a confirmed breakout/retest
TP1: $81,400
TP2: $82,200–$82,800
SL: $78,900
Invalidation: Sustained move back below $78,700
If BTC gets rejected again and loses $77.6K, I would step aside and reassess rather than force a long.
The next major catalyst is also close: U.S. CPI is due September 11, while the Fed decision follows on September 16, so volatility could expand quickly.
Would you wait for BTC to reclaim $80K first, or do you think the $77.6K defense already gives bulls enough confirmation?
Crypto is volatile, so manage your position size and risk according to your own strategy.
