Bitcoin just blazed past our $97K target with an impressive 8% surge. The move carried straight to the Point of Control (POC) level identified in our Fixed Range Volume Profile analysis—that's exactly the zone we were watching in our previous BTC technical analysis.

That call was spot on, and now traders are asking the natural follow-up question: what's the next move?

With Bitcoin consolidating around these levels, the volume profile is revealing some interesting patterns. The POC has held as a key reference point, suggesting that institutions and smart money are paying attention to these structural levels. The fixed range framework continues to guide where buyers and sellers are likely to clash next.

Here's what matters going forward: watch whether Bitcoin can maintain above the POC or if we see a pullback to retest support. Either scenario offers trading opportunities, but the technicals are telling us the market structure remains intact. Stay locked on the key zones.

97k, this move is truly impressive, directly hitting POC. This prediction can be considered a solid one. Institutions are indeed watching these structural levels, but the question is, what's next? Could it be another trap to lure more buyers? Whether POC can hold is the key. If it drops back, I'll be laughing.

97K directly triggered it, this wave indeed wasn't a bad analysis. But now the more critical question is whether it can hold this position; it feels like institutions are guarding it quite tightly here. --- The POC is truly a classic support that has been repeatedly validated, but I'm more concerned about whether the structure will be broken next. Watching closely. --- Spot on? Nonsense, I already said it would reach this level... The real test is how it moves afterward. --- Consolidation? No way, this is just testing the resistance above. Don't be fooled. --- Are institutions really playing according to this framework, or are we just creating stories for their movements? It's a bit confusing. --- Just see if it can break new highs. It feels like this price level is just like a ceiling, stuck there. --- Who predicted this so accurately... Why didn't I catch this wave?

97K has been hit, and this POC analysis is truly outstanding... However, I still want to see if it can break 100,000.

Damn, 97K really broke through. The POC analysis this time is really accurate. ----- Can't predict, brother. Just see if you can hold on. ----- Institutions are bottom-fishing, huh? Then I have to join in too. ----- The POC is tightly stuck. Either break out or fall. It's a 50/50 game. ----- Here comes the "structure is intact" talk again. Said the same thing the last two times. ----- 97K is a big deal. Just need another 8% to be stable. ----- The key is whether the volume is enough to break into the next stage.
