Bitcoin - Bulls Are In Trouble
Bitcoin continues to struggle while other asset classes continue to shine. It's painful to watch, and how long this will continue is anyone's guess.
Let's jump straight into the charts, see what's happening, and explore what we can expect in the week ahead.
BTCUSD (Monthly)
Before we look at the current picture, let me remind you what we discussed last time about the monthly chart.

We compared it with the weekly underside retest.

This is the monthly outlook right now

The price got rejected from the same zone. It looks like an underside retest unless the price moves higher and invalidates it.
BTCUSD (Weekly)

When Bitcoin dropped below $78k on the weekly timeframe, we discussed that BTC needed to reclaim $78k before we could start targeting higher prices again. Until then, I don't see much for the bulls.
We also discussed the weekly support zone around $70kโ€“73k.
Price is now trading around this key weekly zone. I think bulls need to step in and defend it. Why is this such an important zone? We'll discuss that on the lower timeframes.
Just to let you know, If Bitcoin fails to hold the $70k level, it would make me think that BTC is likely to retest the $60kโ€“62k lows once again.
BTCUSD (Daily)

Those who have been following my updates know that we've talked about this daily uptrend multiple times. We traded it several times and eventually took profits near the highs.
Bitcoin broke the daily market structure when it dropped below $75k. Unless the structure shifts back in favor of the bulls, ideally with price reclaiming and moving above $76k. I don't see much for the bulls on the daily chart either.
Why is $70k-72k important to hold?

The $70kโ€“72k zone rejected the price for a few months before Bitcoin finally broke out in April, which led to a move toward the $82k highs.
Dropping back below $70k would mean Bitcoin has fallen back into the old range, opening the door for more downside.
I don't have any positions open yet, and I'm not in a rush to buy either. I'll keep an eye on this zone and see how the price reacts here. If the bulls show some signs of strength, we may get a relief bounce.

Once again, I am not Rushing to Buy. I am more into preventing my capital from drawdown than making money. Money will be made when the market.
Thatโ€™s pretty much it for this Bitcoin update.
Let me know what do you think, your opinions are Always welcome

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ“‰ BTC IS DROPPING... BUT THE MARKET KEEPS OPENING LONGS LIKE CRAZY ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿฉธ

If you still don't get why the whales keep pushing the price down, check this out, dude ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ”ฅ follow me for more info

๐Ÿ“‰ Bitcoin is dropping
๐Ÿ“ˆ Open Interest is rising
๐Ÿ“ˆ Funding is rising
๐Ÿ”ด Coinbase Premium is negative

๐Ÿง  That combo usually DOESN'T end well for the #Bulls ๐Ÿ˜ถ

Why? ๐Ÿ‘‡

When: ๐Ÿ“‰ the price drops BUT ๐Ÿ“ˆ the OI keeps increasing

it means people are still entering leveraged trying to "buy the dip" ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

And if also: ๐Ÿ“ˆ funding is rising ๐Ÿ‘‰ it means longs are still dominating

Meanwhile: ๐Ÿ”ด the negative Coinbase Premium shows that the American spot market is NOT buying aggressively right now

In other words... โš ๏ธ there's more speculation in futures than real spot demand

And we already know what usually happens next ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿฉธ

๐Ÿณ the #whales let in more #Longs ๐Ÿณ creating false hope and then: ๐Ÿ’ฅ a strong liquidity sweep

Because the market loves to wreck the most over-leveraged side ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ“‰

๐Ÿง  The most dangerous thing right now is that: many believe that: "it has dropped too much already"

But historically... when: ๐Ÿ“ˆ funding rises ๐Ÿ“ˆ longs increase ๐Ÿ“‰ and the spot doesn't follow

the market often ends up making another aggressive drop before the real bounce ๐Ÿ”ฅ

๐Ÿ‘‡ The real question now is:

Is BTC heading straight to clear another wave of longs below 74k... or will they first do a fake pump to trap even more buyers? ๐Ÿณ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿ”ฅ

BULL TRAP and BEAR TRAPBull Traps and Bear Traps are false market movements that lead traders to enter positions on the wrong side, resulting in quick losses when the price reverses sharply. They usually occur at significant psychological levels, like support and resistance, or at the peaks of chart patterns (like the wedges we saw earlier). 1. Bull Trap This happens when the price breaks through a resistance or a previous high, signaling that the bullish trend will continue. Buyers (bulls) enter the market, but the price loses momentum and quickly drops below the breakout level.

๐Ÿšจ THE MARKET IS ALREADY TALKING TO YOUโ€ฆ THE PROBLEM IS THAT YOU'RE NOT LISTENING ๐Ÿšจ

This is where you read the market before the news ๐Ÿ“ฐ

Most folks look at candlesticksโ€ฆ
the winners read structure.

๐Ÿ“Š #market structure, simple but powerful:

๐ŸŸข When the #Bulls is in charge:
โ€ข Strong impulses
โ€ข Defended demand zones
โ€ข Respected FVGs

๐Ÿ‘‰ The market moves with intention

๐Ÿ”ด When the #bears takes control:
โ€ข Breaks in structure (MSS)
โ€ข Active supply zones
โ€ข Constant rejections

๐Ÿ‘‰ The market starts to weaken

๐Ÿง  If you're someone who buys without knowing why, this will change the game for you:

The market ALWAYS leaves clues

First there's a trendโ€ฆ
then doubtsโ€ฆ
and thenโ€ฆ the move nobody expected

โš ๏ธ The part that few understand:

The real change doesn't happen in the priceโ€ฆ
it happens in the structure

When:
โ€ข it stops making strong highs
โ€ข it starts failing in impulses
โ€ข rejections appear

๐Ÿ‘‰ that's where it all begins

๐Ÿ”ฅ Direct translation:

You don't need to guess the marketโ€ฆ
you need to learn to read when it changes

๐Ÿ’ฃ Because in the end:

Candlesticks show you the past
Structure gives you a glimpse of the future

๐Ÿ’ฌ Do you trade based on candlesticksโ€ฆ or are you already reading structure? ๐Ÿ‘‡
