The bounce did come, but it hasn’t really taken hold. Just before 2 p.m., $BTC had finished sweeping today’s low of 67568. The 2–3 p.m. candle climbed from around 68140 to 69074, briefly touching 69371 at 3 p.m. Spot volume was just over 1,600 coins, nowhere near the 4,000-plus coins in the sell-off candle at 11 a.m. It failed to hold, and is now back around 68740. It’s still down 6.6% over 24 hours, with a high/low of 73632 / 67568.

Sell orders are clustered overhead between 68800 and 69000, especially around 70 coins at 69000. Below, there’s a buy order of nearly 90 coins at 68700, then a little over 30 coins each at 68000 and around today’s low of 67500. $ETH bounced to around 1948 and is now near 1933; its daytime low is still 1895.95. $BNB climbed back to a high of 637 and is now around 631, with the low still at 622.41.

Farside’s figures for Thursday’s U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs are still preliminary, showing net outflows of around $47.7 million. IBIT and FBTC are not included yet; the latest complete figure is Wednesday’s $299.8 million in net outflows. CoinDesk, citing SoSoValue, says these funds have seen cumulative net outflows of around $1.56 billion so far this year, after still being in net inflows at the end of October. October’s PPI is also due at 9:30 p.m. tonight. If this daytime bounce can’t clear 69000, the market may keep grinding sideways until the data comes out.

Can Bitcoin break through the 69000 resistance before tonight’s data?
