Bitcoin lacks breakout momentum under supply pressure. Can derivatives trading trigger a rebound?

Abstract generation in progress

【Crypto World】Bitcoin’s recent price action has been heavily constrained by the selling pressure from large holders’ positions, especially during the holiday periods when trading is light, exposing the market’s fragility. On-chain data shows that the $93,000 to $120,000 range is filled with sell orders. Attempts to push higher are met with resistance from this wall. The $81,500 level has already become a true equilibrium point, with previous sell-offs absorbed.

Interestingly, the recent upward momentum is not primarily driven by spot market accumulation but mainly manipulated by contract traders. For example, breaking through $90,200 a while ago was quickly followed by a sharp decline, which is a typical leverage game. In the short term, large-scale breakthroughs are unlikely, and the market may remain stuck until at least the end of 2025. However, if CPI data shows positive signs, a rebound could be possible, but don’t expect it to last too long.

Haha, it got dumped again, large investors are really annoying, and the contract traders just love to play with leverage.

The contract guys are playing with fire again. This rebound is just a false rally; spot markets haven't caught up.

That wall of sell orders is really impressive. The leverage traders are playing tricks there, so I definitely won't chase anymore.

93-120k there must be whales guarding behind this wall, on-chain data doesn't lie... Contract guys really messed up the market, spot trading hasn't kept up, how many days can this rebound last... 81,500 is the real support, I see through the suction below, big players are too scheming. CPI to rescue the market? Ha, it's better than nothing, don't expect it to create any waves... I'm convinced the market will be stuck until the end of the year, it's just so manipulated.
