Trader Notes:

Trader Michael van de Poppe highlighted Bitcoin’s increased volatility is creating more trading opportunities, with potential longs around $70,300 to $70,800 and below $68,000 if a broader correction hits.

The trader remains bullish overall and expects more opportunities in altcoins.

ExitpumpBTC predicts Bitcoin could extend its rally toward $78,000 to $80,000, where the trader expects a meaningful rejection and consolidation.

However, the latest surge has strengthened their conviction that BTC is forming a bottom as its market structure improves.
