Trader Notes

Digital asset trader Castillo Trading expects Bitcoin to retest $80,000, though it could first extend toward $89,000. He views dips as buying opportunities rather than a reason to turn bearish.

Heavily followed trader Michael van de Poppe anticipates a sweep of the $84,000 level, which he sees as a potential area to look for long entries.

Trader CryptosBatman points to nearly $1 billion in latest-session Bitcoin ETF inflows as evidence that institutional demand is returning after months of weakness. “Real capital is coming back,” he added.

He suggests BTC’s bottom may already be in.
