Short Position Closed Successfully – Here's Why I'm Going Long on Bitcoin Now

The Trade Setup That Worked

The recent short position was perfectly executed at resistance levels, and we nailed it with precision entries. Now that the weak hands have been flushed out and profit-taking is complete, market conditions have shifted dramatically. This relief rally is exactly what we anticipated after such a steep decline, making the current zone a textbook strong demand area.

Chain Data Tells the Real Story: Holders Aren’t Selling

Long-term holders are showing no signs of capitulation. Just two days ago, we recorded the lowest daily sell volume from long-term holders in 2025 – a powerful signal that serious money is holding firm rather than panicking into the sell-off.

The real bombshell? Approximately 900 BTC (valued at roughly $79.2M at recent prices) has been transferred from major institutional platforms to new, unknown wallets. This is institutional repositioning, not retail panic. Big money is quietly accumulating, not dumping.

Selling pressure is evaporating as we speak. The combination of minimal sell volume from seasoned holders and large institutional transfers into private wallets paints a clear picture: the smart money is ready for the next leg up.

New Long Position Entry Strategy

Entry Zone: 87,800 – 88,100 USD

Now that strong hands have replaced weak hands in the order flow, I’m positioning for a long-term hold with clear profit targets:

• First Target: 88,650 USD
• Second Target: 89,300 USD
• Third Target: 90,200 USD

Beyond these levels, if momentum remains solid, Bitcoin could challenge the 94,000 USD psychological barrier. I’ll deploy a trailing stop loss after the initial targets to protect gains while allowing for extended upside.
