Time Horizon: Next 1–2 weeks
1️⃣ Current Technical Picture
Recent Trend: BTC has been trading in a broad uptrend but with sharp volatility spikes (typical during accumulation/distribution phases).
Key Resistance Levels:
$108,000–$110,000: This is where profit-taking often emerges.
$112,000–$115,000: The next upside target zone if bullish momentum strengthens.
Key Support Levels:
$103,000–$105,000: A critical support band. Losing this can trigger more aggressive selling.
$98,000–$100,000: Psychological and technical floor.
2️⃣ Potential Scenarios
✅ Scenario A – Bullish Breakout
If BTC holds above $105,000 and breaks $110,000 with volume:
Next target: $112,000–$115,000
Momentum: Buyers regain confidence, possibly driven by ETF flows or institutional buying.
⚠️ Scenario B – Range Consolidation
BTC trades between $103,000–$110,000 as traders digest gains.
Expect choppy action with low conviction until new catalysts appear.
❌ Scenario C – Bearish Pullback
If BTC loses $103,000 convincingly:
First target: $98,000–$100,000
Below that: Risk of deeper correction to $92,000–$95,000.
