“Serious” whales present new BTC price hurdle

Подаци из Цоинтелеграпх Маркетс Про ТрадингВиев tracked BTC/USD as it sought to push through $22,500.

The bulls had attempted to vanquish a wall of seller interest in the range just above $22,000, this proving especially stubborn and leading to an overnight consolidation phase.

For fellow analytics platform Whalemap, meanwhile, it was no wonder that the current range was a sticking point for the bulls.

“The new area to keep an eye on: $22,780 – $23,400,” the Whalemap team Рекао Твитер пратиоци:

“This one is serious BUT is the last one inside our current 19k – 25k range.”

An accompanying chart showed the extent to which large-volume wallets had accumulated at various levels in the past. Resistance near spot price was thus all but guaranteed.

As Cointelegraph reported, these clusters of whale activity had effectively sealed the most recent BTC price bottom.

Further analyzing the situation, popular trader Crypto Ed remained confident that a price correction should now enter but noted that spot buyer interest nonetheless remained.

Poised to confirm the ongoing trend of declining inflation, CPI promised volatility across risk assets around the reveal date, најављено for 8:30 am EST.

“Today is the big day on CPI. Expectations are that month-over-month will be -0.1% and year-over-year 8.1%,” Van de Poppe објаснио:

“If it’s going to be higher than those numbers, probably we’ll be seeing a heavy reaction negatively on risk-on. If it’s lower -> positive reaction. Simple.”

The U.S. dollar index (DXY), a key driver of risk asset downside, steadied its fall from recent days, attempting to preserve 108 as support.
