The crypto market opened in red, and Bitcoin (BTC) is once again the center of attention after a drop that brought it to test levels close to $104,000.

In the last 48 hours, the ecosystem has faced a combination of factors that explain the sharp decline:

🚨 1. Mass liquidations:

More than $6.000 million in leveraged positions were removed from the market, generating a wave of forced sales and increasing volatility.

🐋 2. Whale movements:

Large holders have moved hundreds of millions in BTC to exchanges, which could indicate preparation for sale or rotation to other assets.

🏦 3. Mixed institutional flows:

Bitcoin ETFs recorded some recent net outflows, slowing the buying pressure that had driven prices weeks ago.

🌍 4. Tense geopolitical outlook:

Trade tensions between the US and China have caused an increase in global risk aversion, affecting both stock markets and cryptocurrencies.

📉 5. Key technical zone:

Bitcoin is oscillating between $104k and $125k, with critical support at $104k.

Breaking it with volume could trigger a new wave of sales, while bouncing from that zone could pave the way for a recovery towards $118k–$124k.

🔎 Short-term analysis (24–72h):

According to the current market behavior:

📉 50% probability of bearish continuation (BTC retesting $104k or even briefly falling below).

🔁 35% probability of a technical bounce towards $118k–$124k if the pressure stabilizes.

⚖️ 15% probability of sideways movement between $110k and $125k while the market digests the situation.

🧭 What to watch:

Net flows in ETFs (inflows = recovery / outflows = bearish pressure).

Whale movements to exchanges.

News about US–China relations.

Volume and closes below or above $104k.

📊 Conclusion:

Bitcoin remains the market's barometer.

For now, the short-term trend maintains a bearish bias, but a technical bounce remains possible if institutional buyers re-enter.

The next session will be decisive: the market will define whether we are facing a simple correction… or the beginning of a deeper bearish phase.
