Bitcoin is dealing with one of the most frustrating correlations in the market and is still surviving. CryptosRus has notedon X that BTC and Nasdaq are moving together, but BTC is reacting more to drops than to pumps. Wintermute pointed this out in their latest market report, and it’s exactly the type of pattern you normally see near macro bottoms, not near the top of a cycle.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that Bitcoin is on track to close the CME gap today, and the broader market context supports that move. The CIO and founder of MNFund and MNCapital, CryptoMichNL, has offeredinsight into crypto sentiment using the Fear and Greed Index, which shows an impression of the current state of the market comparable to previous occasions. This index is currently sitting at a 14 out of 100 level.
The last time this level occurred was February2025, right before BTC delivered a 20% decline in a month, and in June 2022, which marked a low during the Luna collapse. This shows exactly what the current market structureis, a pattern that doesn’t last long.
CryptoMichNL concluded that it feels brutal when the broader crypto market and BTC are crashing simultaneously, but these phases do not last forever. That’s why patience is the most profitable strategy. Trend Reversal Strengthens As Price Moves Toward Support Zones
Bitcoin is now moving directly into two major liquidity pockets, and these zones are likely to act as short-term support as the market searches for direction. An analyst known as Stockmoney Lizards has revealedthat the BTC liquidation heatmap is signaling a heavy cluster of long liquidations between $80,000 and $90,000.

At the same time, there is a CME true gap between the $92,000 and $92,500 region with no wicks. Meanwhile, BTC has already broken below the weekly supertrend and the weekly EMA50, confirming that momentumhasn’t flipped and BTC is still in a correction phase. Stockmoney Lizards noted that from here, the $90,000 is the natural bounce zone, and we will see if the bounce will manage to ignite a breakout to the upside, or if BTC can continue sliding toward the mid-$80,000 range.
