Year-End Rally Setup: Analyzing Bitcoin’s Candle Pattern & On-Chain Pressure Points 📊

Short traders are positioning aggressively, betting that BTC won’t break $92,000 before the year closes. But on-chain signals tell a different story.

Liquidity Trap Alert: At $94,000, over $5 billion in short positions could face liquidation cascade. This price level acts as a critical compression zone where market makers typically shake out weak holders.

Exhaustion vs. Fresh Momentum: The selling wave from tax-loss harvesting has already cleared—December 26-28 saw the bulk of panic exits. With minimal selling pressure remaining, the technical setup favors a potential reversal.

Historical Candle Pattern Breakdown: Bitcoin’s yearly close shows a striking pattern: 3 bullish candles in the last 4 years against just 1 bearish close. Are market makers testing whether this bullish streak holds, or breaking the pattern for distribution?

Current price sits at $91.35K, leaving headroom for explosive upside. A New Year rally toward $100,000 looks increasingly probable as institutional buyers rotate positions. 🚀
