The "Death Cross" Meets Institutional Buying Power 📉🐂
$BTC is currently painting a conflicting picture. On the daily chart, we have confirmed a "Death Cross" (the 50-day EMA crossing below the 200-day EMA), a classic technical signal that typically precedes a deeper bear trend. This explains the retail panic and the slide to the $87,000 range.
However, on-chain data tells a different story. While retail traders are selling, institutions are accumulating. BlackRock (iShares) just issued a massive new tranche of Bitcoin ETP securities in London (Dec 18/19), signaling that smart money is buying this dip aggressively.
• Key Risk: All eyes are on Tokyo today (Dec 19). The Bank of Japan (BoJ) meeting is the "hidden engine" of this volatility. If they raise rates, the "Yen Carry Trade" unwinds further, potentially dragging BTC down to test $84,000.
• Prediction: Expect high volatility today. If BTC holds $85,500 through the BoJ news, we likely see a "short squeeze" recovery to $89,000 by the weekend. If $85.5k breaks, we visit $82k.
