Trader Notes:

CryptoAmsterdam remains bullish and is holding positions accumulated near the lows but cautions against chasing crypto with leverage near resistance. He sees room for a dip or extended consolidation and favors gradually accumulating with a clear plan.

Trader exitpump notes Bitcoin open interest is rising quickly while price remains range-bound, with spot selling absorbing aggressive buyers. He sees a potential flush toward $77,000 as a possible long entry.

Crypto Chase continues to remain patient and is waiting for Bitcoin to reach his preferred bid zone rather than chasing or shorting. He will reassess his setup if $83,000 is reached before roughly $75,000.
