Trader: Bitcoin needs to reclaim $83,600 or face a short squeeze setup

  • —BTC fell from above $87,000 to $80,000 last week and retraced about 50% of the drop
  • —Liquidations have hit mostly longs, with a short squeeze possible next week
  • —Reclaiming $83,600 is needed to break the range; a retest below $79,800 would offer a long entry
  • —Worst case is a slide to $76,000–78,000, though Killa sees $74,000 as unlikely
Why it matters: The $79,800 and $83,600 levels will decide whether bitcoin keeps consolidating or heads to fresh local lows.
