The trading days before the weekend often carry the market’s final wave of momentum. How does BTC perform on this last rebalancing day? This article will analyze the current market situation from three dimensions: liquidation structure, technical analysis, and operational pathways.
As of now, BTC price is trading around $83.25K, showing a certain rebound after a previous decline. But the key question is: Is this rebound a genuine trend correction or just a final short squeeze? Let’s analyze each aspect.
Market Status Review and Changes in Liquidation Patterns
Current Market’s Dual-Sided Battle Characteristics
From recent trading days, BTC has been under persistent pressure after dropping from high levels. Liquidity during daytime has contracted, with all volatility concentrated at night. This “suppressive” market structure indicates that the market is in the middle to late stages of a liquidation phase.
Compared to earlier unidirectional defense, the current pattern has shifted into a dual-sided liquidation battle zone. This means both bulls and bears’ stop-loss points are being repeatedly tested: the bullish liquidation levels below are still present but have been pre-liquidated multiple times, with diminishing marginal strength; the bearish liquidation levels above are dense and concentrated, becoming key targets for an upward breakout.
Liquidation Density Revealed by Coinglass Data
Based on coinglass multi-cycle liquidation data analysis:
Maximum Pain for Shorts (Short Max Pain) distribution:
12-hour cycle: approximately 89,950 - 90,000
24-hour cycle: approximately 90,880 - 90,900
48-hour cycle: approximately 90,900
These price ranges form a “short liquidation zone,” only 0.9% - 1.9% away from the current price. This dense liquidation pool, once triggered, could trigger a chain reaction.
Maximum Pain for Longs (Long Max Pain) distribution:
12-hour cycle: approximately 88,200 - 88,300
24-hour cycle: approximately 88,300
48-hour cycle: approximately 88,200
Compared to the dense liquidation above, the bullish liquidation points below have been heavily consumed, with significantly reduced strength.
Bull and Bear Power Comparison and Key Support/Resistance Analysis
Core Judgment for the Last Rebalancing Day
The main question to answer on this last rebalancing day is: Where does the liquidation occur first, and can the market hold after clearing?
Structurally, testing bearish liquidation levels upward has higher priority than further downward movement. But testing does not equal successful breakthrough. Here, the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) indicator’s performance is involved.
VWAP and Structural Repair Criteria
Currently, the price repeatedly tests below VWAP. As long as it “breaks VWAP then immediately falls back,” it still belongs to a correction phase. Only when BTC fully breaks above VWAP and the 15-minute chart’s retest does not break this level can we confirm entering a genuine structural correction phase, laying the foundation for a subsequent bullish trend.
On this last rebalancing day, the direction of VWAP determines the market’s nature: whether it is oscillating correction or trend strengthening.
Key Technical Levels
Upper resistance (main focus):
P1 | 89,950 - 90,050: 12-hour bearish max pain, easily triggered by the first upward push
P2 | 90,850 - 90,950: 24-hour/48-hour bearish max pain, most likely to be broken with US market support
Lower support (defensive points):
S1 | 88,200 - 88,300: Overlap of multi-cycle bullish max pain levels; if tested again, observe whether it “bounces back immediately”
S2 | below 87,800: If broken, indicates the day’s structure has completely failed, and the market re-enters a bearish extension
High-Probability Trading Paths Before US Market Open
Path 1: Highest Probability Scenario (Liquidation followed by high-level divergence)
The most likely performance on this last rebalancing day is: before US market open, attempt upward testing; after opening, expand liquidation and push higher, then divergence appears at high levels.
Logic: The bearish liquidation above is close and dense; bullish liquidation below has been repeatedly consumed; price is at the upper end of oscillation. Once it hits around 90.9K to complete liquidation, key points are whether the 15-minute close stays above 90.9K, whether it retests and holds 90.0K, and whether VWAP is fully reclaimed and moved higher.
In this scenario, typical signs include long upper shadows + decreasing volume + subsequent pullback to 90,000 or 89,500, entering weekend consolidation. This is not a bearish reversal signal, just the completion of the necessary corrections, not enough to form a new trend.
Path 2: Second-High Probability Scenario (Rebalancing the lower liquidation)
If before US market open, BTC remains stuck in the 89,100 - 89,300 range without effective upward movement, with declining volume, it indicates the market does not intend to challenge the upper liquidation but plans to revisit and clear the lower bullish positions.
In this case, after US market open, a quick drop may occur, targeting 88,300 (previous stop-loss level), with volume possibly reaching 88,000. After completing the liquidation, the market again enters weekend consolidation.
Path 3: Extremely Low Probability (True trend initiation)
Only if, before US market open, all of the following conditions are met, can a genuine bullish trend form: BTC stabilizes above 90,950, the 15-minute retest does not break, VWAP clearly moves higher, and volume is not just a single spike. Only then might the market shift from a liquidation rebound into a trend correction. Otherwise, all upward moves are likely false breakouts.
Trading Execution Points and Risk Tips
On this last rebalancing day, focus on three points:
Whether the price can sustain above 89.2K in consolidation or is actively pushed toward 90K
Whether US market open occurs before reaching 90K
Whether VWAP continues to be suppressed or begins to move higher
These three indicators will quickly eliminate 1-2 paths before US market open, helping you make clearer trading decisions.
Key reminder: US markets will not give direction; they will amplify the already prepared direction. This means the morning session is just brewing; the real direction depends on US market strength, not the direction itself.
Final risk management advice: Avoid holding overnight positions before the weekend. On one hand, prolonged sideways movement increases unexpected volatility risk; on the other hand, it disrupts normal rest routines. After completing operations on this last rebalancing day, it is recommended to close positions and rest, preparing for the next week.
