$BTC has been trading inside a range / rectangle pattern for quite a long time now.

This prolonged sideways movement has kept the market calm — and honestly, a bit boring.

Volume is still not strong enough, so there’s no clear directional bias yet.

However, historically, long consolidations like this often come before a major move.

At this stage, the key focus should be:

• Clearly marking the upper and lower range levels

• Avoiding trades without proper volume confirmation

Even though the market looks quiet,

this is usually the phase where smart money is preparing.
