BTC/USDT is doing that “calm face, heavy footsteps” move. Price is 87,028.67 (-0.91%) after a nasty sweep down to 86,420 and a quick recovery — that wick is the market grabbing liquidity and daring you to flinch.

24h range: High 88,372.35 / Low 86,420.00

Volume is serious: 11,528.34 BTC and about 1.01B USDT — this isn’t random chop, it’s active positioning.

On the 15m chart, BTC is sitting under the short-term EMA cluster, which is why it feels heavy:

EMA(7) 87,037.65 (right on price)

EMA(25) 87,104.60 (first ceiling)

EMA(99) 87,329.47 (bigger ceiling)

So we’re at a decision point: reclaim 87,100–87,330 and the mood flips bullish again. Fail here and BTC can retest lower supports.

Key levels I’m watching:

Support: 87,065, then 86,833, then the big wick base 86,420

Resistance: 87,299, then 87,531, then 88,372

EP: 87,350 (break/hold above EMA99 zone) or 86,850 (pullback near support)

TP: 87,530, then 88,370

SL: 86,350 (below 86,420 sweep)

This is the part where Bitcoin tries to shake the weak hands before it shows direction. If it reclaims 87.3k, it can snap up fast. If not… it’ll test your patience again. I’m ready for the move.$BTC
