2. *Cut if*: 4H close below $79,600. It can continue to $77,972.
3. *Liq $40,736 far away* → BTC would need to crash another -49%. Sleep well.

*Conclusion*: Today BTC is red with a healthy correction. *$79,600 level is extremely important*. If it holds strong, tomorrow has a chance to bounce back to $81,729. If it breaks through, get ready to $78K dulu.
