Bitcoin Holds Near $82,500 as Daily Bollinger Bands Hit Tightest in 2.5 Years

  • —BTC near $82,620, up 1.2% in 24 hours, recent range $80,700–84,000
  • —BandWidth at its tightest in about 2.5 years, signaling compressed volatility
  • —Resolution levels watched at $81,900 to the downside and $86,000 to the upside
  • —Spot ETF flows remain mixed as single-session liquidations hit hundreds of millions
Why it matters: A volatility squeeze typically precedes a sharp move without indicating its direction, so traders should brace for a range expansion.
