Trader Notes: Glassnode data shows the ratio of profit to loss volumes among Bitcoin Long-Term Holders (LTH) remaining high, characteristic of bull markets.

Crypto trader Follis, in a recent X post, indicated that the classic FOMC shakeout could flush weak hands, reset leverage, then send it higher.

If Bitcoin recovers quickly post-FOMC, it's just more fuel for the uptrend.

Crypto trader Rekt Capital sees Bitcoin testing the diagonal resistance within the $101,000-$106,000 range and a daily close above this resistance as crucial for a breakout.

Without this close, previous upside wicks risk rejection.
