Notable Developments:

Trader Notes: Crypto trader CrediBULL Crypto suggests Bitcoin may be mirroring a prior consolidation pattern, referencing his signature "GREEN squiggles." He expects few days of tight, sideways chop before a potential breakout or expansion move.

Ted Pillows highlights that Bitcoin has remained range-bound for weeks, even as global liquidity steadily rises.

He says the lag is temporary, reminiscent of Q2 behavior, and predicts BTC will soon catch up with macro tailwinds, targeting above $135,000 in Q3.

Henry aka LordOfAlts remains undeterred by short-term volatility, calling the current pullbacks “noise within a larger bullish structure.”

He notes whales are taking profits and Bitcoin is forming a bullish pennant, with recent downside pressure likely meant to trigger liquidations.

He sees a fourth touch near $114,000 as a key long entry, aligning with his long-term "buy the fear, sell the greed" thesis. Henry expects one final “Oops moment” before Bitcoin's next parabolic breakout.
