Bitcoin (BTC): Bullish, But Don't Buy Yet! Here's Why.

210
Hello, traders! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Let's break down the current situation with Bitcoin.

๐Ÿ” Overall Bias: Bullish

Bitcoin has confirmed its intention to continue the bullish trend towards a new All-Time High (ATH). This comes after a successful sweep of Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) and a confirmation of the bullish daily structure.

Price has already corrected into a discount zone, which is generally favorable for buys. But wait! Don't rush to open long positions just yet.

๐Ÿณ The Whale's Game Plan

The large players have a crucial Point of Interest (POI) below us โ€” a 4h order block. This specific order block is what engineered the SSL sweep, making it a powerful support level and a magnet for price.

To sweep that liquidity and trigger the stop-loss orders of retail traders, the "whales" had to open short positions. Now, to continue the uptrend, they need to close those shorts at break-even or a small loss. The 4h order block is the perfect place to do that.

My Trading Scenarios
1๏ธโƒฃ Primary Scenario: The Ideal Entry

I expect a mitigation of this 4h order block. I will be closely watching the price reaction around this POI and the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level.

If the level holds and we get a Lower Timeframe (LTF) confirmation (e.g., the beginning of a bullish order flow), long positions could be considered.

๐ŸŽฏ Potential Long Entry Zone: ~ $102,745 - $103,868

2๏ธโƒฃ Alternative Scenario: The Retail Trap

Price might not drop to our POI immediately. It could first bounce from the current levels, luring impatient retail traders into long positions. After that, a sharp drop could shake them out before the real move up begins next week, targeting the Previous Month's High (PML) as a minimum objective.

Conclusion

Patience is key. We need to watch the actual price behavior and reaction once the "whale" delivers the price to our POI.

This is not financial advice. My analysis is for educational purposes only.Hello, traders! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Let's break down the current situation with Bitcoin.

Note
Bitcoin followed the second scenario โ€” this looks like a fake rally meant to trap long traders, then flush them out.
The whale will use their liquidations to accumulate long positions for the real move up.
Even if price keeps climbing without a proper flush, going long here is risky.
Let the whale finish its plankton meal first โ€” then join the ride.
Note
BTC still following the plan from my original idea:
After a false move up that trapped impatient longs, price reversed sharply โ€” exactly as expected.

The analysis and the key POI (4H order block + 78 fib) remain valid for a potential bullish reaction.

However, I now see a third possible scenario:
If the whale doesnโ€™t get enough liquidity at the order block, this zone could instead be used to grab liquidity by sweeping the low at 100360 before moving up.

Watch for price reaction as it reaches the POI.
