Bitcoin slipping under this zone doesn’t feel dramatic to me. It feels deliberate.
The drop below recent levels looks more like pressure being applied than structure breaking. Price is heavy, but it’s not accelerating. That usually tells me sellers are active, but not in control.
What catches my attention is sentiment. Fear is creeping in while price is only grinding lower. That imbalance matters. When emotion runs ahead of price, reversals often start forming quietly.
I also notice the split behavior. Larger players leaning short, while faster hands start picking at bids. That tension usually doesn’t last long. One side gets forced out.
Technically, this area feels like a stress test. Not the end of a move, but the moment where conviction gets checked. If support holds, the rebound tends to be sharp. If it doesn’t, acceptance comes quickly.
I’m not rushing either way. I’m watching how price reacts, not how it falls.

This is the part of the chart where patience matters more than certainty.
