⚔️ $BTC 80.5K Showdown: Bears Jab, Bulls Block — Who Breaks First?
Updated paragraph: $BTC short bias is still playing out. The 80.5K bias level rejected again, almost perfectly, and as long as price stays below it, the local short bias remains active. Bears still have control short term, and momentum favors sellers right now. But here’s the catch: the weekly POI continues holding well, which means the aggressive higher timeframe uptrend is still alive. Bulls are wounded, but they are not dead yet.
Added points — highlights:
1. 80.5K = key bias level. This is the intraday battleground. Below it, bears hunt 78K. Above it, bulls reclaim control.
2. 81K reclaim = momentum shift. A daily close above 81K flips the structure bullish. That would trigger short covering and force a squeeze.
3. 83K = breakout continuation target. If 81K flips support, 83K is next. Break 83K with volume, and 85K liquidity gets swept.
4. 78K zone + CME gap = magnet. Price keeps getting pulled here after every pump. This is where most recent longs are trapped.
5. 75K = weekly defense line. If 78K breaks, 75K is the next major weekly demand. Lose 75K, and the higher timeframe uptrend takes real damage.
6. Volume profile update: Selling volume spiked on the 82.7K rejection, but spot CVD shows buyers stepping in at 80.2K. Choppy range, not clean trend.
7. Funding reset: Funding flipped negative after the dump, which means shorts are piling in. That gives fuel for a squeeze if 80.5K gets taken out.
Current game plan: Short term bearish below 80.5K, but respecting the strength of the weekly trend. Not adding fresh longs here, because local structure is weak. Reducing some short exposure into profit instead. Less is more after 5 trades this week — overtrading kills accounts.
Bottom line: Intraday belongs to bears, but the weekly chart belongs to bulls. 80.5K is the referee. Trade the reaction, not the prediction. $BTC
