LINK/USDT - Ready to Explode? Uptrend Structure Tested?Chainlink (LINK) is now positioned at the most crucial zone in its mid-term technical structure — the 16.6–15.5 USDT area is not just a simple support, but a confluence zone between horizontal support and an ascending trendline that has been holding since April 2025. Currently, price is reacting positively within this area, indicating that market participants are still defending the broader uptrend structure. However, if this zone fails to hold, the structure may collapse — paving the way for a deeper correction. --- Pattern & Market Structure Ascending Trendline Support: formed since April and still holding selling pressure. Yellow Demand Zone (16.6–15.5): a strong accumulation area, tested multiple times this year. Range-to-Trend Formation: price attempting to break out from sideways range into trend continuation. Layered Resistances Above: 18.5 → 20.0 → 23.4 → 25.2 → 26.7 → 29.3 acting as step-by-step upside targets if the trend continues. --- Bullish Scenario — Potential Reversal from a Strong Base If price manages to hold and bounce strongly from the 16.6–15.5 zone, it opens the door for forming a new higher low that could become the foundation for the next rally. Bullish confirmation: Daily close above 16.6 with reversal candle (hammer/bullish engulfing) and increasing volume. Step-by-step upside targets: 18.5 → first psychological resistance. 20.0 → prior supply reaction area. 23.4–25.2 → potential breakout continuation zone. Extended target: If momentum sustains, the ultimate target sits around 29.3–30.9, the yearly high. Strategy: Gradual buy within support zone with disciplined stop loss below 15.0. Additional confirmation entry if daily close >18.5. --- Bearish Scenario — Breakdown as the Start of a Deeper Correction However, if price breaks below 15.5 with strong volume, the bullish structure will be invalidated. Bearish confirmation: Daily close below both trendline and 15.5. Downside targets: 13.0 → previous horizontal support from May. 10.8 → macro base from 2024. Additional signals: RSI breakdown, or failed retest below 16.6 after the break. Strategy: Wait for a failed retest around 15.5–16.0 for a short/hedge setup targeting 13.0. --- Technical Perspective The market is currently in a strategic neutral zone — between a potential major reversal and a confirmed breakdown. This is a decision phase, where volume and daily candle patterns will dictate the next dominant direction. From a mid-term perspective, holding the ascending trendline means maintaining the macro uptrend structure, which could drive LINK back toward the 25–30 USD region. Conversely, losing this support may shift the structure into a new downtrend toward the long-term accumulation area below 13 USD. --- Final Note The 16.6–15.5 zone is more than just a number — it’s the psychological boundary between conviction and doubt. Short-term traders look for a bounce, while long-term investors await directional confirmation. Watch the daily close, volume, and trendline reaction closely. This is where the market decides: rebound toward 20+ or fall back to 13. --- #Chainlink #LINKUSDT #CryptoAnalysis #TechnicalAnalysis #SupportAndResistance #Trendline #CryptoSetup #PriceAction #CryptoMarket

LINK is Waking Up—But Is This a Bull Trap or the Real Deal?Yello, Paradisers! Did you catch the breakout on LINKUSDT? It looks good at first glance, but there’s a critical detail that could make or break this move—don’t skip this analysis if you’re thinking about jumping in. 💎LINKUSDT has just broken out of a well-defined descending channel, a structure that often marks the end of a downtrend phase. What adds weight to this breakout is the presence of bullish divergence on both the MACD histogram and the Stochastic RSI, two reliable momentum indicators. This confluence significantly increases the probability of a bullish continuation, but that doesn’t mean it’s time to enter blindly. 💎For a higher-probability trade setup, what we want to see next is a small pullback. Ideally, the price should return to the breakout zone, allowing former resistance to flip into solid support. If this area holds, that’s where the opportunity lies—targeting the next major liquidity zones and resistance levels above. 💎However, caution remains essential here. If price breaks back down and closes a candle below the invalidation level, it would invalidate the bullish setup entirely. In that case, it’s far better to remain on the sidelines and wait for a cleaner structure to form, rather than forcing a position during uncertain conditions. 🎖Strive for consistency, not quick profits. This market rewards patience, discipline, and tactical execution. The next big opportunity is always around the corner—but only for those who stay focused and follow the strategy without emotional interference. Be a pro. MyCryptoParadise iFeel the success🌴

CHAINLINK LINK - 1D - 1W TFAfter the end of the bear trend, price started forming a clean ascending channel. The midline of the channel (dashed zone) marks a phase of uncertainty, often leading to shakeouts or temporary consolidations. Area between the white dashed and green line can be viewed as a position-building zone, where smart money accumulates before a short-term or long-term upward move (ellipses). Once the price breaks and confirms above this range, the probability of a move toward the upper boundary of the channel increases significantly.

LINK LONG — FROM MATH TO MARKET STRUCTURE: An Extensive AnalysisTraders, In my latest BINANCE:LINKUSDT analysis I started my thesis with " I BELIEVE THE CRYPTO MARKET IS SETTING UP FOR A BIG, BIG, BIG DUMP! NOT JUST LINK! " It wasn’t coincidence that I wrote those words in caps lock. The market was whispering louder than usual: not in price, but in data. Every metric pulsed in rhythm, like the heartbeat of a system about to release its tension. The numbers weren’t random; they were poetry in motion, quietly syncing toward one inevitable point. Sometimes, data doesn’t just inform — it sings. And when it does, your fingertips start typing before your mind even realizes what the melody means. Now we’re back — same chart, same logic, but a different side of the market. I’m going to analyze it the same way I did before — step by step, math-backed, structure-based, and logic-driven. Only this time, it’s even more extensive. For free. For nothing. So that you, the people who actually care to learn, can start to see how markets truly work. How they breathe, trap, rotate, rebalance — and how every candle hides intent. I believe the BINANCE:LINKUSDT dump might be over — for now, at least — and that the market is slowly starting to build upward momentum. This post is not a quick “looks bullish” statement. It’s a structured walkthrough from mathematical foundation to market structure, liquidity, and order flow, showing why the $20–$21 region might become the next key target before a rotation lower. Let’s go step by step. Step 1 – Is There a Mathematical Reason to Say the Current Auction Might Be Finished? By “auction,” I mean the move from a clear swing high to a clear swing low where sellers were in control. Markets move in auctions — from high to low, then pull back, then extend again. To determine whether a sell auction is finished, we measure how far it has retraced and extended. After the 10 Oct liquidation event, price printed a clean new high — more valid than the liquidation spike. That’s point A (~20.15). From there, it sold off to point B (~15.70). So our first auction is: A → B | Direction: Down Step 2 – Measuring the Retrace Since the move was downward, I drew a Fibonacci retracement from A to B (high → low). nThat gives us retracement levels above price on TradingView. Price retraced almost perfectly to the 0.786 level (~19.23) — not shallow (0.382 or 0.5), not extreme (0.886), but deep enough to classify as a “normal” yet decisive retrace. That means sellers regained control after a 0.786 pullback, a key ratio in the Fibonacci family. Step 3 – What Does a 0.786 Retrace Usually Lead To? Here’s where the Fibonacci logic becomes meaningful. The 0.786 level is derived from the square root of the golden ratio inverse: √(1/φ). Its natural mirror on the other side of price is √(φ), or 1.272. That’s why 0.786 retraces often project toward 1.272 extensions — the two are mathematically linked. Beyond that, the next probable extensions are 1.414 and 1.618. So, for a 0.786 retrace, the Fibonacci extension ladder is: Primary: 1.272 Intermediate: 1.414 Extended: 1.618 Step 4 – Did BINANCE:LINKUSDT Reach One of These Fibonacci Targets? To check that, we reverse the Fibonacci — draw it from B to A (low → high). That prints the extension levels below the swing low. Price hit the 1.414 extension almost perfectly before structure began shifting: Lower lows stopped forming Higher lows began to appear Small higher highs emerged on lower timeframes That’s a structural sign the sellers exhausted their leg — a textbook confirmation that the 1.414 zone completed the auction. Step 5 – Confirming the Auction The A → B auction retraced to 0.786, extended to 1.414, and then reversed in structure. This matches the Fibonacci expectation for a completed wave. If the retrace had been 0.886 instead, we’d likely expect continuation to 1.618 — but since it was 0.786, the 1.414 tap followed by reversal fits perfectly. ✅ 0.786 retrace → 1.272 / 1.414 / 1.618 extension ✅ 1.414 tapped → structure reversed We can reasonably call this auction finished. Step 6 – Confluence from the Smaller ABC Swing After the main leg, the market made a small rally and a lower high — point C. Using the Fibonacci Extension tool (A → B → C), we project this smaller swing. Interestingly, the ABC projection lands exactly on the same 1.414 zone as the larger A → B measurement. That’s two independent Fibonacci constructions converging on the same price. From a math perspective, this isn’t coincidence — both patterns use the same ratio family. It’s proportion — the geometry folding back onto itself. Nature’s Geometry on a Price Chart This is where Fibonacci goes beyond numbers. The same proportions that define growth patterns in seashells, tree branches, sunflowers, hurricanes, and galaxies are present in the market’s structure. Two distinct swings produce the same 1.414 target.That’s natural proportion — mathematical harmony showing up in price behaviour. It’s not random. It’s geometry repeating itself. Part 2 – The Structural Context: Liquidity and Value We’ve identified our Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ) using Fibonacci confluence. Now let’s look inside the structure and the market’s underlying “memory.” We’ll answer three questions: Where does liquidity sit — which levels might the market hunt next? What is the order flow showing — is there absorption or continuation? What do the next extensions project mathematically? 1. Liquidity via TPO (Market Profile) TPO (Time Price Opportunity) shows how much time price spent at each level. Clusters = acceptance and value. Gaps = imbalance and rejection. Around $19.00, during TPO periods G, H, N, and O, price built acceptance but didn’t explore higher. That created a weak high — a level that often acts as a magnet for future liquidity hunts. Another, slightly weaker high sits near $20.00, which is still unfinished. And as James Bond said, “I never leave loose ends.” Neither does the market. 2. Anchored VWAP Confluence Anchoring VWAP from the major swing high shows the blue AVWAP aligning almost perfectly with that $20.00 region. That gives strong confluence between volume-weighted value, liquidity, and structure. 3. Low Volume Nodes (LVNs) and Imbalance Using the Fixed Range Volume Profile (FRVP) from A → B reveals clear low-volume zones — “air pockets” where price moved too fast to build volume. Between $20.00 and $20.50, there’s a notable LVN, meaning price skipped over it during the selloff.Such zones often act as magnets — the market tends to revisit them to rebalance unfinished business. Now we have three layers of confluence: Weak high at $19.00–$20.00 Anchored VWAP aligning with $20.00 LVN pocket at $20.00–$20.50 That defines a clear liquidity and target zone. Structure and Confluence Summary PRZ established through Fibonacci symmetry Structure showing higher lows and early accumulation Confluence cluster between $20.00 and $20.50, combining: Weak highs Low-volume node Anchored VWAP Market Profile imbalance The setup aligns across math, volume, and structure. Part 4 – Order Flow: What Lies Beneath the Candles From the outside, price action looks calm — clean candles, defined Fibonacci levels, and structure that seems perfectly balanced. But the real story is hidden underneath, inside the Order Flow. Every candle represents a battle — between aggression and absorption, buyers and sellers, liquidity and imbalance. Understanding who is winning that battle tells us whether a move is genuine strength or a trap waiting to unwind. Order Flow allows us to look beneath the surface and see where transactions are actually happening — where volume clusters, where buyers are absorbed, and where sellers are defending. It’s the market’s heartbeat. The Current Picture Here’s what we see right now on BINANCE:LINKUSDT : CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) — across both spot and futures (stablecoin- and coin-margined contracts) — is making lower highs, showing persistent sell aggression. Yet price itself is not breaking down. Instead, it’s holding steady and even forming higher lows. Meanwhile, the A/D (Accumulation/Distribution) line is rising, indicating that despite heavy selling pressure, buyers continue to absorb and accumulate. That means one thing: aggressive sellers are being absorbed by large passive buyers quietly taking the other side. Recognizing the Setup Let’s break down the pattern: CVD ↓ → sustained sell aggression OI ↑ → new short positions entering the market Price ↔ or ↑ slightly → absorption and accumulation taking place When these three align: It often signals a short trap forming. Sellers feel in control because CVD shows selling dominance. In reality, their aggression is being absorbed by larger passive buyers. Once that liquidity runs out and buyers stop absorbing, shorts are trapped. Those trapped shorts must cover — triggering a fast, aggressive short squeeze upward. Also: CVD on Stablecoin Margined Contracts remains flat while Stablecoin Margined Open Interest rises — showing aggressive shorting being absorbed by larger buyers. Price stability suggests accumulation, not weakness. Since OI stays high, those shorts are still in the game, meaning their positions haven’t been closed yet. If price starts to move up, they’ll be forced to cover — setting up the conditions for a short squeeze. Absorption in Context Absorption isn’t random — it’s the footprint of strong hands quietly taking in sell pressure without letting price break down. While most see weakness, they’re actually witnessing controlled accumulation. Here, price holds steady as CVD trends flat and OI stays high — meaning aggressive shorts are still in the game, being absorbed by larger buyers. Every new short adds fuel to the spring. When that pressure releases, it doesn’t drift — it snaps. Shorts are forced to cover, triggering a sharp, emotional squeeze toward the next liquidity zone around $20–$20.50, where Fibonacci confluence and a weak high align. This is where microstructure meets the macro picture — absorption building the base for a violent move higher. Part 5 – Fibonacci Extension Confirmation To justify the $20–$21 target mathematically, we apply one more Fibonacci extension — from the last swing low to the recent high, projected forward. The 1.618 extension aligns almost perfectly around $20.00, adding strong mathematical confluence to our previously defined liquidity and structure zone. That makes $20.00–$20.50 a textbook target cluster — a Fibonacci, liquidity, and volume alignment. Final Outlook – The Path Ahead Based on all the combined data: Fibonacci structure shows completion and new expansion potential Market Profile and VWAP reveal unfinished business around $20–$20.50 Order Flow confirms absorption and hidden accumulation The 1.618 Fibonacci projection reinforces this level as a natural mathematical destination I believe the market will squeeze upward toward $20–$21, taking out the weak high and the LVN pocket — and once that liquidity is collected, rotate back down to restore balance. The setup is mathematically justified, structurally valid, and order-flow supported — a complete picture of how Fibonacci geometry, structure, and liquidity align to reveal where the next phase of this auction may unfold. If price slips lower instead, the key level to watch is $12.90 — the latest 1.618 extension from the initial wave we measured earlier. That remains the deep liquidity and structural boundary where balance could be restored. Last words. Everything we have mapped — Fibonacci structure, confluence, liquidity, and absorption — means nothing without the psychology behind it. The market is not just math and candles; it is a mirror of collective emotion. Every trapped short, every breakout chase, every hesitation is human behaviour written in numbers. When confidence is at its peak, risk is usually greatest. When fear dominates, opportunity hides in plain sight. That is why sentiment often reaches its extreme just before reversals. Most traders only see what is already visible, not what is quietly building beneath the surface. So next time you scroll through social media or read the news about what everyone expects, remind yourself of this: When everyone sees the same breakout, the trade was over hours ago. And the markets whisper long before they speak. From the depths of the sands, ThetaNomad ------------------------------------ If you enjoy this kind of analysis, leave a like and drop a comment.

LINK - Approaching Breakout From Descending TrendlineChainlink (LINK/USDT) is currently trading near a key support zone around $15.00–$15.20, where price has shown multiple bounces. The chart also shows a descending trendline acting as resistance. Price is beginning to push up from support and is approaching this trendline again. A breakout above the descending trendline could signal a shift in momentum, potentially leading to a bullish move toward the next resistance levels around $15.60 and then the projected target zone near $16.20–$16.40. Overall, the chart suggests a possible trend reversal scenario, but confirmation would come from a clean breakout and retest of the descending trendline.

Chainlink (LINK) – SmartCon 2025 + Key Support TestLINK is in focus as SmartCon 2025 kicks off today, drawing attention to the broader Chainlink ecosystem. Historically, this event has sparked major announcements and partnerships, often impacting LINK price action. Traders are now watching for potential bullish catalysts during the event. Technically, LINK is breaking down into a key support zone between $14.50 and $15.00. This zone has held in the past and could act as a launchpad for a reversal bounce, especially if event-driven sentiment kicks in. Failure to hold this zone opens the door to deeper retracements. 🛠️ Trade Setup (Idea Only): Entry Zone: $14.50–$15.00 Take Profits: $20 / $22 / $25 Stop Loss: $13 Bias: Short-term bullish if support holds

LINKUSDT → A trap? Grabbing liquidity before the fall...BINANCE:LINKUSDT is forming a correction after a bearish run. A false breakdown of support is triggering a correction before a possible continuation of the decline. The coin is testing the support of the trading range within the downtrend. The reaction to the false breakdown of support is a pullback to the zone of interest. After a strong downward distribution, a correction to the break-even zone is forming. A false breakout of resistance at 17.45 could trigger a continuation of the decline due to a weak market and a liquidity pool formed above 17.450, which is likely to stop the pullback on the bearish trend. Resistance levels: 17.450 Support levels: 16.53, 15.77 The downtrend may continue. A retest of resistance may end in a fall and an update of the local minimum, as well as reaching the zone of interest at 15.77. Best regards, R. Linda!

LINKUSD Massive Head and Shoulders starting the new Bear Cycle. Chainlink (LINKUSD) has been steadily rising within a Channel Up during this Bull Cycle but on the recent August 18 2025 High, it failed to make a Higher High and got rejected instead. The Channel Up seems to have transitioned into a Head and Shoulders (H&S) pattern, while the 1W RSI has been on a Bearish Divergence (Lower Highs trend-line against the price's Higher Highs). We saw a similar H&S forming at the end of the previous Bull Cycle (2021), which essentially paved the way to the 2022 Bear Cycle. Symmetrically it appears to also work quite well as right now we are on a similar spot (1W MA50, blue trend-line) as November 2021. The two Bear Cycles of LINK declined by -88.90% and -90.00% respectively. As a result, if history repeats, we are looking at a potential bottom at at least $3.500 (-88.90%).

LINK - BULLISH SCENARIO BIST:LINK - price analysis 🍿 Almost the same PA as $DOGE. Very neutral area on the monthly, big volatility on both side. Really hard to trade & find a direction on the short term. A Monthly close above 18.00$ would be good for bulls regarding the tails + Kijun level ichimoku. Bullish consolidation likely if it hold above 15.80$ daily basis. Local key support: 16.70 - 16.55$ - 15.70$ Price seems to be moving inside this downtrend channel ; but 👇 Possible bullish setup: $ A breakout of downtrend would surely lead to a push toward 20.00$ or even 22.80$ to fill the gap! 📈 Weekly resistance: 19.55 - 20.50 - Also, I Hope that's not a bearish H&S pattern (3rd chart) with a neckline around 20.00 - 20.30$, otherwise, big bearish move could happen. 👀

LINK Spot LONG LINK Spot LONG📈 Due to the formation of a zigzag structure, I am more inclined to form a triangle and further exit from it upwards. I no longer consider it as an impulse. Expectations have not changed, I plan to start recording after updating the global maximum of 53.00. Only the time of the scenario implementation has changed, which may take a long time. All altcoins with potential show approximately the same picture, which is encouraging. This structure provides the most accurate goals for profit-taking and scenario cancellation.

LINK/USDT — The Final Defense Zone: Will the Bulls Rise Again?Chainlink (LINK) has entered its final defense zone around $15.00–$17.00, a historically strong structural support area. This zone isn’t just random — it’s the same level where the market once launched a major rally that drove LINK to $27.87. The most recent daily candle shows a deep wick below the zone that was quickly reclaimed — a classic sign of a liquidity grab or false breakdown, hinting that the market might be accumulating before its next significant move. Overall, the structure suggests a major retest phase: after a powerful breakout earlier this year, LINK is now retesting the origin of that move. The key question — is this the start of re-accumulation before another leg higher, or the beginning of a market structure breakdown toward deeper lows? --- Structure & Pattern Yellow Zone ($15–$17) → Historical demand zone, validated by multiple previous bounces (marked by yellow arrows). Macro Pattern → Retest of breakout zone, with the latest candle showing sweep and reclaim behavior. Momentum → Sharp correction, but with a long lower wick and potential momentum divergence — a sign that the correction phase might be near its end. Technical Context → Holding above this zone may form a double bottom or higher-low structure, indicating bullish strength recovery. --- Bullish Scenario (Reversal Setup) A daily close above $17 would confirm that buyers are defending the structure. A sustained move above $19.99 could unlock upside targets at $21.69 → $23.30 → $25.12 → $26.82. A strong rejection from the lower zone, combined with rising volume, may signal institutional accumulation in progress. Market Narrative: Bulls might be quietly preparing for Phase 2 of the rally after a classic shakeout. As long as the $15–$17 zone holds, LINK retains the potential to resume its mid-term uptrend. --- Bearish Scenario (Continuation Breakdown) A daily close below $15 would signal structural failure and a loss of bullish control. This could trigger a continuation drop toward $13.5 → $12.0 → $9.8. A failed retest from below the zone ($16–$17 rejection) would further confirm bearish momentum. Market Narrative: If this support collapses, LINK may enter a distribution phase, where selling pressure strengthens and momentum fully flips bearish. --- Conclusion & Perspective The $15–$17 zone is the line between survival and surrender for LINK’s bullish structure. As long as this level holds, the potential for a bullish reversal remains alive. But once broken, the mid-term trend could shift decisively to bearish. We are standing at a Decision Zone — the kind of area where institutions quietly position themselves and patient traders wait for confirmation before taking action. --- LINK returns to its final defense zone at $15–$17 — the area separating a major reversal from a new downtrend. The long wick signals a liquidity sweep, but confirmation awaits the next daily close. Bulls are being tested — will they hold the line, or give in to market pressure? Levels to watch: Support: $15–$17 Resistance: $19.99 → $21.69 → $23.30 → $25.12 → $26.82 → $27.87 --- #LINK #Chainlink #LINKUSDT #CryptoAnalysis #TechnicalAnalysi #SupportAndResistance #CryptoMarket #PriceAction #Altcoins #MarketStructure #CryptoSetup #LINKPrice

LINK – Back Inside the Bullish FlagOn Friday night, Chainlink lost its confluence support from the 18.50 zone and dropped sharply to just under $10. However, looking at the chart, we can clearly see the importance of this area, marked by both the 2022–2023 accumulation resistance and the 2024 lows. From there, the coin rebounded fast, managing to reclaim the 18.50 support and re-enter the bullish flag that started forming at the end of August. This recovery shows strong buying interest — but no clear buy signal has yet appeared. For now, LINK remains a coin to watch closely. A confirmed breakout above 21.50 would open the door for a new bullish leg, with 30 USD as the next technical target.

TradeCityPro | LINK: Eyeing $18 for Potential Drop👋 Welcome to TradeCity Pro! In this analysis, I’m going to review the LINK coin — one of the RWA projects, currently ranked 12th on CoinMarketCap with a market capitalization of $12.57 billion. ⏳ 1-Hour Timeframe In the 1-hour timeframe, after Friday’s drop, the price fell to $16.78. 💫 Following this decline, the price made an upward correction up to the 0.618 Fibonacci level.

$LINK – PREPARING FOR A BIG DUMP – SQUEEZE TRAIN LOADING Traders, I BELIEVE THE CRYPTO MARKET IS SETTING UP FOR A BIG, BIG, BIG DUMP!, NOT JUST LINK! Last time, we nailed the BIST:LINK short from $24.55 — it hit Target 1 and Target 2 (the two boxes below) pixel perfect. From $20.00 we expected a retrace back up toward the $23.00 region, before a potential dump to $17.00. That scenario may now be unfolding. Let’s break it down: CVD & Market Participation – Bearish Divergence Building Aggregated CVD Spot → still relatively flat → tells us there’s no real spot demand or accumulation. Spot buyers are not fueling this push. Aggregated CVD Futures (Stablecoin-margined) → moving aggressively higher → lots of leveraged traders chasing the move up. Aggregated CVD Futures (Coin-margined) → also moving aggressively higher → even riskier longs, since collateral is crypto itself (double downside risk if LINK sells off). 👉 Why this is a bearish divergence: Price is being pushed higher only by aggressive leveraged longs, while spot (the foundation of demand) is not confirming. This creates a fragile rally that can easily unwind into a long squeeze. Order Flow – Signs of Absorption On Binance & Bybit perps, we see aggressive buyers stepping in (CVD making higher highs). But price is not moving higher accordingly. This is a classic absorption signal: passive limit sellers are absorbing the buying pressure, preparing for reversal. Market Context – Entering the PRZ ($23–24) HTF VAL (Value Area Low) at this region. LTF VAL aligns perfectly here too. Single Prints (TPO profile) → thinly traded zones where price moved quickly in the past, often acting as magnets and reversal points. Imbalances stacking at these levels, showing inefficiency that can flip. AVWAP Confluence → multiple anchored VWAPs cluster in this zone, creating strong resistance. All of this builds a confluence-heavy Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ) at $23–24. My Take We are entering a Reversal Zone packed with: No real spot demand, Leveraged longs chasing, Absorption in order flow, Strong technical confluence (VALs, TPO singles, Imbalances, AVWAP). ⚠️ This is the perfect fuel for a long squeeze dump back toward $17.00. Trade safe, manage risk. Adios 🚀🔪
