Cryptonary's take

It is still our expectation that BTC is in a downward trend to sideways chop for the upcoming weeks, and maybe months. We view the current move as a slight relief rally.

This is less the case for BTC, but particularly the case for Alts and Memes. In order for us to consider changing our stance, we'd need to see a convincing break of $104k or to see a real rapid change in the macro, which we're currently not expecting. We still expect $87k to $91k to be retested in the coming weeks.

For the traders; if BTC reaches $102k to $104k, this may open the door for a trade opportunity. A Short. However, if the price reaches those levels, we'll reassess at the time also.
