Bitcoin Analysis: Macro Tailwinds + Tape Reading = The Perfect B

🌍 Bitcoin Analysis: Macro Tailwinds + Tape Reading = The Perfect Bulltrap (or a Historic Breakout)

Published by: Pôncio Pacífico — The Portuguese God of Derivatives


⚡ Macro Context: Global Instability Is Pushing Bitcoin Up (For Now)

In the last 48 hours, Bitcoin has surged nearly 3%, hitting $87,500. This happened while:

The U.S. dollar weakened amid political instability (Trump challenging the Fed's authority)

Gold hit a new all-time high above $3,370/oz

Global equity markets corrected and bond yields declined


🔎 Sources: Bloomberg & Reuters

Bitcoin is behaving like a risk-off asset. Bullish at first glance, but the tape tells a more sinister story...


🕵️ On-Chain & Order Flow Analysis (last 5 days)

Delta: Negative delta candles with price still rising → classic short squeeze behavior

Open Interest: Increased during the pump, then flattened → sign of trapped FOMO longs

Volume: Strong at the beginning of the move, now fading while price still climbs → exhaustion?

Conclusion: we’re seeing short liquidations + late long entries = DANGER ZONE.

💭 Final Pôncio Proclamation

"Macro says buy. Tape says wait. Combine both and you realize: whoever buys now without a plan... is paying for the market makers' champagne brunch."
