Furthermore, there was a liquidity sweep as Bitcoin’s steady decline pushed prices below the previous weekly lows triggering many stop-losses from long positions. This development created a flush of liquidity for big players which served as a fuel in driving a market rebound. Finally, KillaXBT talks on a short squeeze setup whereby the Bitcoin market turned short heavy when traders expected a further downside following the initial price bounce from $100,000. When prices started going up, these short traders had to buy back to cover their losses, adding more fuel to the rally.
Looking to the future, KillaXBT has highlighted three potential scenarios for BTC. Presently, the analysts states the premier cryptocurrency is retesting a resistance zone between $104,800-$106,000 which aligns with the 0.5-0.618 Fibonacci retracement levels of the recent price drop. For the first scenario, KillaXBT foresees a bullish continuation only if Bitcoin breaks and holds above this resistance region. Such a move could trap short sellers once again, potentially fueling further upside momentum. However, if Bitcoin faces rejection at this specified resistance area, the second scenario comes into play, in which the price is likely to decline and retest the $100,000 support level. The third, final and worst case scenario includes a price break below the $100,000 leading Bitcoin to retest support zones around the $97,000 price region. Interestingly, KillaXBT’s personal projection expects market makers to continue driving Bitcoin’s price higher, capitalizing on the recent sharp rebound that caught many short traders off guard. With no clear “safe” long entry yet available, the analyst suggests that pushing prices further would trap more short sellers while forcing sidelined bulls to chase the rally At press time, BTC continues to trade at $105,600 reflecting a 1.16% gain in the past day.
