BTC1! short idea with open gap fill and catching a quick longAs you might know, open gaps have a fill-rate of 90-95%. Additionally the open CME-gap (1W-basis) has much confluence with important technical levels for support and it lies in the middle of two zones where enormous amounts of USDT-inflows came into the market.
1. the 2024-range (Q1 - Q3)
2. the 2025-range (Q1 at least)
Where the new neckline also is, the new support that became resistance appeared. It might also be a good strike for smart money to know that above the biggest orderblock of 2024 support has developed more strength and consequence. So why you don't give it a try to retest it?
Here a maximum of buying pressure should lead to a strong bounce of BTCUSD towards a new alltime-high, if and as long as global liquidity rises again. But if not, at least inflation should do half of the bullish job for BTCUSD and a "sideways up" would be my - historically BIASed - expectation.
It begins with a shorter short. In the end it might be a very, very quick longer long because of my expectation of rising buying pressure with huge volume delta for the bulls below 78k.

BTCUSD - TIME TO SHORT?It appears that we are currently experiencing a similar pattern to the bull run we saw in the past. During this previous bull run, we saw a sharp decline from 65K to 29K. Currently, we are seeing a similar pattern with long positions being trapped at the top and many stops being placed below 20,4K.
If this pattern continues, we may see a decline towards the 20K psychological level, which would help to flush out leveraged long positions and start a new impulse from there. Additionally, there is an open gap at 20K which may also be filled.
