Bitcoin is sitting at a decision point, not a comfort zone.
Price has been compressing beneath a clearly defined descending trendline while holding a higher-low structure from the recent bounce. This is not random chop. It’s pressure building. The market already absorbed macro expectations, liquidity shocks, and forced unwinds — what remains now is positioning, not panic.
The upper descending trendline is the major line everyone is watching. Every attempt to move higher has respected it, and price is now pressing right into that boundary again. When Bitcoin keeps returning to the same resistance after defending demand below, it’s usually preparation, not weakness.
On the downside, the demand zone around the recent lows continues to hold cleanly. Buyers are stepping in earlier each time, tightening the range. That tells me sellers are losing follow-through, even though upside confirmation hasn’t arrived yet.
Momentum indicators aren’t screaming bullish — and that’s exactly why this setup matters. Breakouts that come from neutral momentum tend to travel farther because positioning is light. A clean acceptance above the trendline would shift structure decisively and open room toward the next liquidity pocket.
If I were trading this, I wouldn’t chase candles. I’d let price prove itself. Acceptance above resistance favors continuation. Rejection keeps this range alive. Either way, the next move won’t be small — compression like this never is.
