Last week there was clear evidence of big purchases being made on the spot market, notably on coinbase.

The question we're forced to ask ourselves here is: was this the start of a longer duration trend, or is it a one-off and should we expect some level of mean reversion next?

Comparing it to other instances, there is only one in the last year where price really kept trending like this: The November post election rally.

If we map out what that price action would look like here (blue), we can expect the 91.5k low to hold and look for a HL somewhere in the H4 trend area. If trend is strong, I would not expect this to trade below the small range poc here for long, or even at all. That level is sitting at around 93.4k, which is also the previous weekly range VAL and yearly open. If we get a sweep of the highs and price is again failing to make a LL but consolidates in the 95k area, we can expect some expansion higher still.

That is not to say we can pull back deeper and still rally after, I'm just projecting November price action on the current chart.

If we do get a pullback, it means we lost H4 trend so we look at EMA 100 and 200 next. These line up with the lower range VAH and filling the higher imbalance. It is already a lot less bullish, but I would look for a reaction there anyway. 88.5-9k is probably the line in the sand there.

Any acceptance back below the 10-200 ema cluster, then we get back into lower range VA and expect rotation to at least poc. Honestly I'd think we rotate all the way to VAL and clean up all the imbalances, possibly correct the equal lows at 74k.

I have no real bias as to what we're about to get. Blue seems like an easily invalidated play, so I'm playing that one but at the same time try to fish for top shorts in case we do get a bigger rotation down. Either I get stopped on the long and play for a big move down, or I get stopped on the shorts and look for expansion towards 100k.
