Catching Its Breath

Yesterday +4.5%. Today -1.1%. Mathematically normal.

A pullback after a big candle is textbook. If it kept rallying without one, that would actually be more concerning.

Today's low was $70,707. Just above $70K. This is the level that matters.

Two days ago, $70K was resistance. Now we're watching whether it becomes support. When resistance flips to support — that's a real breakout.

Not Making a Call Yet

Honestly, both scenarios are on the table right now.

Scenario A: Healthy consolidation. Sideways above $70K for a few days, then a push toward $73K. This would confirm a V-shaped recovery that erases the prior decline.

Scenario B: $70K breaks again. Yesterday's surge was a short squeeze, not real buying. Price slides back below $68K.

All I can do is wait. If BTC is still above $70K in 2-3 days, it's A. Below, it's B.

Saying "I don't know" is better than fake conviction.
