While the motives of this whale remain shrouded in mystery, similar trades have significantly influenced the market’s trajectory in recent weeks, like a maestro conducting a symphony of chaos.
One trader, Hyperliquid’s James Wynn, has made headlines with his large leveraged positions, many of which ended in a dramatic loss — a true tragedy of the trading stage.
BTC price seeks definitive range breakout
A break from the narrow trading range is the missing ingredient for traders to decide whether to add or reduce their exposure, like a chef waiting for the perfect moment to season their dish.
“There are a lot of positions that have been built up on both sides in this range and it’s clear where the liquidity lies,” mused popular trader Daan Crypto Trades in an X post.
“Currently in no place to take a trade on this but I will be looking out for a range high or low sweep and monitor the reaction from that point. Higher timeframe $100K & $110K remain key for June.”
Fellow trader Crypto Tony echoed the sentiment that $104,500 needed to hold into the weekly close to secure the short-term bull case, as if the market were a delicate house of cards.
