Scenario C - Range-Bound Consolidation: BTC ,000-,500

Most probable near-term outcome: BTC consolidates ,000-,500 through mid-week with compressing volatility.

Drivers:
1. Mixed macro data keeping directional conviction low.
2. Balanced ETF flows - neither strong inflows nor outflows.
3. Market awaiting clearer catalysts (PCE, Fed guidance).

Under this scenario: realized vol declines; implied vol mean-reverts lower; funding neutral. Range-trading (buy support, sell resistance) outperforms trend-following. Daily close outside range invalidates thesis. Breakout probability rises as compression triangle matures. Assigned probability ~25%.

Patience and disciplined entries are the edge. Avoid overtrading in low-conviction environment; let range resolve before sizing up.
