This wave of short liquidation provides fuel; once burned out, it's gone. Someone has to step in and buy the dip.
$BTC pushed back above the important $78,000 level today, but there is one thing traders are watching closely:
📊 Spot demand still looks relatively weak.
Current situation:
🔶 Bitcoin reclaimed a key short-term resistance zone
🔶 Short liquidations are adding fuel to the move
🔶 Price can still squeeze higher despite weak spot buying
🔶 The $79.5K–$80K area is becoming an important zone
Possible scenarios:
📈 Short squeeze continues → move toward $79.5K–$80K
📉 Weak spot demand persists → higher probability of rejection and continuation lower
What matters most:
⚠️ Sustainable rallies usually need real spot buyers.
Without strong spot demand, moves can become heavily driven by leverage and liquidations.
𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐇𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐭:
🐂 Bulls reclaimed momentum short term.
⚠️ But if spot buyers do not step in, the market could simply be setting up another liquidity trap.
