On the 15-minute chart, $BTC is showing a clear downtrend followed by a consolidation phase. The current rebound is very weak, with no significant buyer funds stepping in—this is a weak recovery, not a reversal to an uptrend. If the key support at 61300 is effectively broken, the daily bearish engulfing structure will continue the downtrend, with the next major test around 58000. Right now, the middle range is not suitable for any trades—whether long or short. Trading here is pure speculation with a very low margin for error, making it easy to hit stop-losses. Reliable trading opportunities only appear at critical boundary levels: If the price breaks below the 61300 lower boundary and then stabilizes, you can go long following the trend; if the price surges to 64700 for a false breakout and quickly pulls back, combined with high funding rates, that’s a solid shorting opportunity. Absolutely avoid participating in the chaotic price action in the middle of the range. Today’s plan: go long in the 61-61.3 range, go short in the 6.43-6.47 range, with a 2% stop-loss.
