$BTC grinding at 76.2K—the previous weekly low before CPI. This range feels dead and will likely stay that way until the data drops.
Bitcoin is stacking liquidity at 76.2K, and this bounce doesn't look sustainable. OI shows the last dump pulled in heavy shorts, and this little pump is just aggressive short-covering—no real conviction.
Two setups I'm watching post-CPI (08:30 ET):
1. Sweep 76.2K PWL → induces more sellers, liquidates longs. I'll look for long triggers if we get that sweep and reclaim.
2. Preferred: CPI triggers a flash wick sub-75.5K. That wipes out all range buyers and pulls in aggressive sellers. That's where you catch higher timeframe longs with real strength back to the upside.
80K and 81K short-POIs remain valid, but I don't think we get there today. No edge until CPI prints—then we hunt the liquidity grab and the reaction. Patience pays.
