The market went sideways over the weekend with low volume, just waiting for Monday's U.S. stock market to set the direction. After the $87,400 spike and pullback, the price has been locked between $83,000 and $85,000. RSI is back to 50, KDJ is neutralized in the mid-range, and the MACD bearish bars are shortening, indicating that the buying momentum has faded, but active selling is also limited. This isn’t a buildup for a breakout, nor is it a trend reversal to bearish—it’s a standoff between bulls and bears, waiting for a new pricing signal. ETFs have seen net inflows for seven consecutive days, showing that institutions are still accumulating. However, daily inflows have dropped to about $134 million, which is only enough to hold the price steady but not enough to push for a breakout. Over the next two days, the market will likely continue to consolidate. The real direction will be determined after Monday’s U.S. stock market opens: if it holds above $85,000 with volume, the next targets are $86,000 and then $87,400. If it breaks below $83,000, expect a pullback to $81,500–$82,000. My take: Slightly bullish in the short term, but unless it breaks $86,000, all upward moves are just range-bound rebounds. On Monday, keep a close eye on the Nasdaq and U.S. Treasury yields—whichever breaks the balance first will guide where $BTC heads next.
