Technical analysis by bbqgio about Symbol BTC: Sell recommendation (12/16/2025)

BTCUSD on the 1H is still wearing a bearish suit after a clean downside BOS and a sharp sell-off. Price is consolidating in a tight band, carving a classic bear flag while staying well below the 20/60/120 MAs (bearishly stacked). Momentum has cooled, but structure remains heavy, with the range effectively boxed between support near $85,500 and flipped resistance at $87,733.18 (also near the 0.786 retrace and the upper edge of the flag). The primary path is continuation: I’m watching for a decisive 1H close < $85,400 to confirm the breakdown. If that triggers, the first pressure point is $84,500, with continuation potential toward $82,600. Any sustained reclaim back above $87,733.18—and especially a 1H close > $87,800—would weaken the bear-flag thesis and force caution. If bulls do flip it with a confirmed close above $87,800, the squeeze risk is toward the higher inefficiencies: $88,260–$89,281, then $90,699–$91,908 (with $91,000 as a practical objective). With ATR near 767, expect whips and size accordingly. This is a study, not financial advice. Manage risk and invalidations. Thought of the Day 💡: The best trades are the ones that become obvious only after confirmation—let price do the talking. --------------------- Thanks for your support!
