The macro breakout in this cycle began around 2026-08-21, approximately 53 days ago. There have been 0 consecutive confirmed daily closes.

Touching Line7 indicates that short-term buying power is moving out of the cost-concentration zone. It is evidence of a right-side trend, but does not confirm a bull market or constitute a buy signal on its own. If the price quickly falls back below Line7, treat it as a weakening false-breakout signal, and continue to validate it against spot demand, liquidity, and long-term holder behavior.
