BTC's short-term trend is locked between 90k and 92.5k. From iceberg orders to key resistance levels, the rhythm of this market is dominated by large funds. Using the Smart Money Concept, the current positioning is very deliberate—bottom accumulation orders create liquidity traps, while the top resistance levels are ideal points for institutions to reduce positions on rallies. Short-term surges within this range are essentially a battle for the momentum to break through.

honestly the 90-92.5k range is just smart money playing ping pong with our bags at this point... they're literally printing money while i'm checking floor price every 5 mins like some kinda addict lmao

90k to 92.5k, this is the playground for big players. We retail investors are just the chopped leeks.

90k to 92.5k oscillating back and forth, it feels like the big players are playing jump jump candy, and we retail investors are just destined to be repeatedly harvested.

The 90k-92.5k range has indeed been manipulated by big players, with iceberg orders stacking up fiercely.

90k to 92.5k, isn't this just a trap set by the big players for us retail investors? Both sides are pits. Big players are stacking orders at the bottom, while we're stacking anxiety. I lose money in this buy and sell. Institutions reduce positions at highs, I add positions at highs. This is called professional matching. What’s the point of bouncing back and forth? All we're doing is providing liquidity for others. The concept of smart money sounds super advanced, but in translation, it’s just a fancy way of saying we’re the ones losing out. This market trend can be summed up in two words — being cut. Iceberg orders, just the name reveals what good stuff might be hidden underneath. 92.5k is resistance, and also my psychological upper limit. Looking at this rhythm, the big players are dancing, and we’re just stepping into traps. Range consolidation? No, this is called "fixed-point harvesting period."

ngl this 90k-92.5k range is just whale theater at this point... been watching them pile orders at the bottom like clockwork, classic liquidity trap setup. technically speaking, they're basically printing a roadmap for retail to get liquidated lmao
