Chart data reveals an interesting trap forming in BTC markets. Long traders have been accumulating positions around $89K—building what looks like solid support. But here's the tension: short positions are equally stacked up near $92K, creating a price range where somebody has to get hurt.
The setup is classic: trapped capital on both sides means violent moves are coming. Either the bulls break through $92K and trigger shorts into liquidation cascade, or bears take control and flush the longs out below $89K.
With this kind of positioning imbalance, the real question isn't whether volatility happens—it's who blinks first when the wick comes.

The 89 to 92 range is really a meat grinder; I saw it coming a long time ago.

Caught between 89K and 92K, this time it's not about who makes money or loses, but about who breaks out first.

This squeeze is incredible. The 89-92 range has so little room; how many people have to die?

Stuck between 89K to 92K, whoever can't move fast enough this time will get liquidated.

So many people are caught between 89K and 92K; it should have exploded long ago... Whoever runs first wins.
