Bitcoin’s Next Big Move: Key Levels to Watch as Price Compresses (Eric Krown Youtube Summary)

Bitcoin is entering a decisive phase as its price action continues to coil within a narrowing range. While short-term momentum suggests a bounce to start the week, a major breakout or breakdown looms by the end of June. Here's what you need to know about the key levels, timing, and signals that matter right now:

📉 Compression Ahead of Expansion

Bitcoin is currently wedged between two major pivots:

  • Upside pivot: ~$111K (CME), signaling breakout confirmation

  • Downside pivot: ~$103K (CME), marking breakdown territory

Until either of these levels is decisively broken on a daily close, the broader trend remains neutral. This range is forming a symmetrical triangle, with an apex around July 9, making a breakout or breakdown highly likely between June 25–26.

📊 Breakout Targets

If Bitcoin breaks above $111K, the implied move points toward:

  • Target: ~$120K–$121K

  • This target is supported by multiple technical setups, including price pivot extensions and Fibonacci confluences.

If Bitcoin breaks below $103K, expect:

  • Target: ~$95K

  • This downside aligns with rising channel breakdown probabilities on the 3-day and 5-day charts, which historically resolve downward 60% of the time.

🧭 Momentum Indicators Lean Bearish

Short-term bullish impulses aside, higher time frame momentum is still leaning down:

  • Daily Stochastics flip bearish below $107K

  • 2-Day: Turns down below $108.2K

  • 3-Day: Bearish under $110K

  • 5-Day: On watch for a bearish cross below $103.7K

  • Weekly: Risk of downside cross on spot if price closes under $111.5K

Until these thresholds are reclaimed, upside moves are unlikely to lead to trend shifts.

🪙 Stablecoin Dominance Suggests Short-Term Tailwind

Stablecoin dominance is forming a local lower high and trending down, which historically correlates with upward pressure on Bitcoin. As long as dominance continues to fall, BTC could enjoy short-term relief rallies — but again, without breaking key pivots, this is noise, not trend.

📐 Median Reversion and Volatility

Bitcoin is trading above its HPDR (historical price distribution range) median (~$101.6K). A reversion to this level is probable, especially in a tightening volatility phase. This doesn’t imply a breakdown — just a reconnect with support before the next directional move.

🧮 Quant Edge: EMA Correction Probability

Quant data indicates that when the red 3EMA crosses below the yellow EMA, there's a ~78% chance of Bitcoin revisiting the green moving average — currently near $101K–$103K and climbing. This reinforces the expectation for a pullback before a meaningful breakout.

🏁 Final Thoughts

Expect mostly sideways action over the next 7–10 days within the $103K–$111K range. The real action begins near the end of June, with a high-probability breakout (or breakdown) scenario playing out before July 1.

Keep an eye on:

  • Daily closes beyond $111K or below $103K

  • Momentum cross confirmations on higher time frames

  • Stablecoin dominance trends

  • Volume and volatility expansion near the triangle apex

In short, Bitcoin is gearing up for a significant move — but the market will likely bore traders a bit longer before choosing a direction.

Action Plan: Be patient. Set alerts at the key pivots. And prepare for a breakout toward ~$120K or a breakdown toward ~$95K. Summer might start slow, but the fireworks could be just around the corner.
