66,600 wasn't retested, and trading volume started to shrink in the afternoon
Let's separate what was right and wrong in the midday call: the direction was right, but the second half was wrong. At noon, I judged that “there would probably be another test of the 66,000 low this afternoon.” It wasn't tested at all; the afternoon low was only 66,967, about $500 above the midday low. But the directional call at noon—not to rush into buying the dip—was right: the 24-hour change remained negative, with no reversal.
First, let's fill in the breakdown sequence from morning through noon: at 11:00, one sharp sell-off took the price to 66,613 on about $100 million in volume. At 12:00, another sharp sell-off followed immediately, taking the low to 66,456 and setting the day's low. That candle saw about $104 million in volume—more than twice the average of the previous five hours. Two consecutive long, high-volume bearish candles drove the price below 67,000. The key change came in the afternoon: volume plunged to just over $30 million from 13:00 onward, while the price ground sideways around 67,000. The 16:00 retest of 66,967 also came on lower volume, and at 17:00 the price climbed back to 67,412, reclaiming 67,000. A high-volume breakdown followed by a low-volume stall suggests selling pressure was no longer as fierce as it had been at noon.
Prices: Bitcoin is now at 67,400, down 2.52% over 24 hours, with a high of 69,134 today (at 1:00 a.m.) and a low of 66,456 (at noon). Ethereum is at 1,913, down 1.67%; today's low of 1,878 was hit at 10:00 a.m. It stayed mostly around 1,900 in the afternoon before climbing back to 1,913 at 17:00. BNB is at 619, down 3.01%; its intraday low of 612.65 was also hit during the noon sell-off, before it climbed back to 619 in step with the others at 17:00. All three major coins hit their intraday lows around noon and recovered together at 17:00, putting in a simultaneous pause in their declines.
New developments: U.S. spot Bitcoin funds saw net outflows of $185.4 million on Friday. One product from a major asset manager alone saw $144 million flow out in a single day and has now recorded outflows for 11 consecutive trading days, with cumulative outflows of $2.35 billion over two weeks. Prices are trying to form a bottom, but institutional money is still flowing out—the key factor that could determine whether this bottoming process succeeds.
U.S. stocks won't open tonight (the market is closed on Saturday), so there's just one level to watch: 67,000. The price reclaimed it at 17:00, but overhead, it's facing the positions trapped by the two high-volume bearish candles at 11:00 and 12:00. Weekend liquidity is thin, and sharp wicks are especially common on weekends, so there's a decent chance the 66,600 low will be tested again on Sunday. Only if the price holds on lower volume can we start talking about stabilization.
At noon, I asked whether 65,000 was a safe level. This afternoon's answer: 65,000 is still a long way off; first, let's see whether 67,000 can hold. What do you think will happen over the next two days of the weekend: a rebound to fill the gap, or a sharp wick lower first?
