Bitcoin remains range-bound and under pressure. The key level for me is 82500: as long as the price stays below it, the main scenario is weakness and the risk of testing support around 80000. A break above 82500 invalidates this scenario and could trigger a move into the 84000–85000 zone. It’s important that the breakout comes with solid green candles, not a false breakout with pin bars.

I also look at crypto sectors: DePIN and Theta, meme tokens, DEXs, L2 weakness, Starknet, Arbitrum, and individual local signals from the scanner. The main focus is on which levels would confirm a move out of the range and which would keep the risk of a move lower in play.
