BTC/USDT:USDT
BTC swept 1H liquidity at 76.61k, triggering stop-loss cascades that were quickly absorbed by limit orders. This caused a mean-reversion bounce toward 77.20k. Weak volume on the recovery suggests lack of institutional conviction, but short-term momentum and fading downside exhaustion favor a retest of the 4H breakdown zone before potential continuation.
