BTC/USDT:USDT
BTC is compressing within a tight $76,400-$77,400 range on the 4H timeframe with steadily declining volume. Repeated rejections of $76,400 confirm strong institutional interest at the base, while 15m/1H higher lows indicate gradual distribution of sell-side pressure. This compression typically precedes a volatility expansion phase. A confirmed 1H close above $77,500 accompanied by a volume spike (>3x average) signals breakout initiation. Expecting a short-covering rally towards the $78,200-$78,800 supply zone within 3-4 hours.
