BTC Price Compression Signals Potential Breakout

Bitcoin is trading in a tight range between key EMAs. The 1D50EMA acts as resistance, while the mid-range holds as short-term support. Increased upside liquidations hint at a bullish breakout toward $92K. A clean break and retest above the 1D50EMA could offer a strong long entry.

$BTC Sunday update:

Not much happened this week, but we got a lot more information to understand the next potential move in the market.

Everything is aligning corrrectly. I'm paying attention to the EMAs (daily and weekly 50EMA), and their mid-range. Let's analyse:

Defining:

• 1W50EMA: Main bull market support based on all-time data. It's our current HTF support.

• 1D50EMA: It's compressing price down in a narrow area signaling a major aggresive move soon. It's our currrent LTF resistance.

• EMA's mid-range: LTF support, likely holds.

The liquidations to the upside have noticeably increased since last week.

It points out to +$92k.

Is this a signal that the upcoming aggresive move should be to the upside?

Likely yes, so I'm favoring swing longs. Although I'm already positioned since $77k 1W50EMA.

We've spent all week trading below the 1D50EMA resistance.

So for me, a clear break above this level would be vey optimistic. And if we get a retest like in the chart below, then that's a new great R:R entry for me.

Basically, pay attention to that daily 50EMA resistance.

My other idea, the same scenario as last week, if we drop to the mid-range first and hold above it then that's a good new entry for me. Caution with a potential slight deviation below it.

I'll wait for the MM to show his hand first, to try and catch a safer entry.
