$BTC/USDT: There are three possible scenarios for Bitcoin right now, as we still can't confirm the direction.
Major resistance is around $81K–$83K. I think we could reach that area pretty quickly, followed by a possible retracement toward $74K–$76K.
1. Bullish breakout: If $BTC breaks above $83K without a major correction and the breakout is confirmed by strong volume, it could signal the beginning of a bull market that continues into next year.
2. Healthy correction, then breakout: $BTC corrects to the $74K–$76K area, holds support, then moves back toward $83K and breaks above it. This would confirm a longer-term bullish structure and could lead to a bull market continuing into next year.
3. Worst-case scenario: If $74K fails to hold and $BTC continues lower, then this entire move may have been nothing more than a dead-cat bounce, and we could see new lows.
We can't predict exactly which scenario will play out, so be prepared for multiple scenarios instead of betting everything on one direction.
