Bitcoin reclaims strong support, eyes a strong price reversal.
Key Takeaways
Содержание статьи:
Bitcoin bounced from $113.5K after a TD Sequential ‘Buy’ signal, Long/Short Ratio hit 1.54, and $18.84 million in Exchange Outflows pointed to accumulation.
Bitcoin [BTC] looked primed for a recovery bounce on the 4th of August after briefly reclaiming the lower boundary of its Descending Channel Pattern.
This came on the heels of a TD Sequential buy signal flashing on the 12-hour chart—an indicator often used to time trend reversals.
Volume dips, but structure improves
BTC was last seen trading near $114,700, logging a modest 0.89% intraday gain. However, 24-hour trading volume slipped by 14%, falling to $49.18 billion, as per CoinMarketCap.
The decline in participation appeared at odds with the technical upside brewing underneath.
Still, the market’s underlying structure showed signs of improvement.
BTC had formed a bullish inverted Head and Shoulders Pattern along the channel’s base. Price also climbed back above this key level—signaling that traders might be buying the dip, not fading the bounce.

Can a 3.3% rally materialize?
Naturally, price targets are already on the table. According to AMBCrypto’s technical setup, if BTC sustains momentum above $114,000, it could rally up to $118,000, a projected 3.3% move.
The above TradingView chart backs this view, illustrating the same channel breakout with a bounce play unfolding.
However, the Supertrend Indicator remained conflicted. On the four-hour chart, it hovered above price and red (bearish), while on the hourly timeframe, it flipped below price and green (bullish).
The takeaway? BTC may still be in a transitional chop zone rather than a clean uptrend.
Buy signal confirmed by analyst
Meanwhile, crypto analyst Ali Martinez amplified bullish sentiment.
In a post on X, he confirmed that the TD Sequential Indicator had printed a ‘Buy’ signal on BTC’s 12-hour chart—potentially paving the way for a short-term trend reversal.
This was visually supported by a 9-count formation and price bounce near $113.5K.

On top of that, Binance’s BTCUSDT Long/Short Ratio hit 1.54, per Ali’s data.

This implies that 60.65% of open positions are currently long—a sign that traders are positioning for upside, even if price hasn’t decisively confirmed a breakout.
Bitcoin accumulation soars
Given the current market sentiment, traders, investors, and long-term holders appear to be accumulating the token, as per CoinGlass.
Data revealed that exchanges have recorded an outflow of $18.84 million worth of BTC over the past 24 hours, suggesting potential accumulation and raising the question of an ideal buying opportunity.

Additionally, institutions like Metaplanet have purchased 463 BTC for $53.7 million, seizing the current dip.
This indicates that both investors and institutions are taking advantage of the price drop, a bullish sign for Bitcoin that may support a recovery in the coming days.
