BTCUSD Footprint + Structure Breakdown | May 18, 2025

42
Bitcoin has entered a high-value compression zone after a strong impulsive breakout from the $90K region. With volume tapering and delta flattening, we’re seeing a textbook case of accumulation before expansion.

🔎 Chart Analysis:
Strong Demand Imprint on May 8: Massive delta spike (≈ +2.06K) with total volume >15K led to a clean impulsive breakout, confirming aggressive buyers in control.

Volume Absorption Phase: Since the breakout, BTC has been ranging between ~$101K to $104K, building up value in a high-volume node.

Delta Neutral Compression: Daily deltas are getting tighter; buyers and sellers are evenly matched, forming a potential springboard setup.

Liquidity Pools Above: Resting liquidity likely above $105K. A sweep of this range could trigger the next expansion to $110K+.

📌 Key Zones:
Support (Demand):

$100K - 98K → First response zone with decent volume and reaction.

88K - $86K → Origin of move, untested demand zone (see blue box).

Resistance (Liquidity Target):

$105K → Key level to clear for upside continuation.

$108K - $110K → Next target zone if expansion resumes.

🧠 Sentiment & Strategy:
This is not distribution—yet. There’s no significant selling delta, and price remains buoyant near the top of the range. As long as the demand zones hold and the structure doesn’t break down, the bias remains bullish.

📈 Watch for a breakout above $105K with volume and delta confirmation. If it comes, we ride. If not, look for a deep pullback toward the 98K or $90K zones for re-entry.
