Short answer: a cautious Long bias, but only on a pullback into support with a tight stop. The 1-day trend is still bearish, so this is not a breakout chase.

Trade plan (idea, not personal advice)
| Item | Level |
|---|---|
| Entry (long) | 82,000 â 82,400, ideally on a retest of MA30/MA200 |
| Stop loss | 81,400 (â -1.2%, below the support cluster) |
| Take profit 1 | 83,500 (â +1.3%, R:R â 1.1) |
| Take profit 2 | 84,600 (â +2.7%, R:R â 2.2) |
Move the stop to breakeven after TP1 is hit.
What would flip the view to Short: a 1h or 4h close below 81,400, or a rejection at 83,500â84,600 with rising negative funding and ETF outflows. Short setups would then target the 80,500 Bollinger lower band.
Risk note: Size the position so that a stop-out at 81,400 is an amount you can accept. Crypto can gap through levels on news, and the ETF outflow trend is a real counterweight to this setup.
