Notable Developments:

Trader Notes: Crypto trader Stockmoney Lizards noted that the current dip is likely to end around $118,000–$119,000, setting the stage for the next upward leg.

Cold Blooded Shiller highlighted that bears are temporarily in control, as profit-taking pressures push Bitcoin lower in the short term, validating the minor pullback.

Byzantine General emphasized $118,000 as a key support level, waiting to see if it holds to provide a favorable entry for the next rally.

CryptoUB explained that this is Bitcoin's first pullback and potential low sweep in the current rally. A rebound between $119,500 and $120,900 would be ideal to maintain aggressive momentum. The overall takeaway: this pullback is a healthy reset rather than a bearish signal, potentially priming Bitcoin for its next leg higher.
