BTC tests $76K — the same level that capped the January 2026 rally.

$450M in sell orders above.

F&G at 21, fourth day in Extreme Fear.

Base scenario for the weekend:

  1. Clean break above $76.5K with volume → path to $80K. The biggest short squeeze of the year remains open.

  2. Rejection in the zone and weekly close below

$74K → new test of $72K support. No capitulation, just consolidation.

3) Sideways range $74K-$76K → most likely scenario without fresh macro catalyst.

What most people ignore:

80% of the time the market doesn't break out. It rotates.

Weekends with extreme F&G and sideways price aren't boring.

They're the setup where those without patience give away their position.

Monday we review what happened.
