Market Analysis

  • Onchain Edge identifies Bitcoin’s “critical decision zone” based on Taker Buy/Sell Ratio and MVRV Ratio.
  • MVRV Ratio at 2.21 indicates room for further upside, below typical market top levels (3.5–4.0).
  • Puell Multiple suggests Bitcoin is not overbought.
  • Potential upward movement may reclaim six-figure territory if macro indicators remain steady.

Bearish Signals

  • Taker Buy/Sell Ratio at 0.96, below the bullish threshold of 0.98.
  • This level historically precedes market corrections, as seen in March and November 2021.
  • A failure to break above current resistance may indicate a temporary pullback.
  • Maintaining above $95,000 with increased buying activity could lead to new highs.
  • A decline below critical support might prompt a correction before regaining upward momentum.
