A crypto analyst believes Bitcoin’s recent price movements might be a carefully planned trap for traders. While Bitcoin aims for new all-time highs, this analyst thinks market makers are creating a situation that could trigger a huge price jump.
Is Bitcoin Setting a Trap?
Crypto expert Luca noticed something interesting about Bitcoin’s price since late May 2025. Despite several price increases, Bitcoin hasn’t actually broken through any recent high points. Luca thinks this unusual pattern isn’t accidental. He believes market makers are making it look like Bitcoin’s price is stable, tricking traders into thinking the price will stay low. This could be setting up a “bear trap”—a situation where traders betting against Bitcoin (shorting it) get caught off guard by a sudden price surge.
Multiple Resistance Levels and a Potential Base
Several key resistance levels are clustered between $109,000 and $112,000. Bitcoin’s price is hovering just below, creating what looks like a solid base. But Luca argues this isn’t just weakness in the market; it’s a deliberate strategy. He believes market makers are avoiding breaking through these resistance levels to create a bigger bear trap. This could lead to a massive short squeeze, pushing Bitcoin to a new all-time high.
Historical Context: Deja Vu?
Luca points to a similar situation in 2024. Bitcoin’s price was capped by a resistance line for most of the year, with repeated failed attempts to break through. Unswept highs—just like now—indicated that short positions were being protected. Then, in November 2024, Bitcoin broke through, leading to a huge price increase. Luca sees a parallel with the current situation, suggesting a similar breakout is possible.
The Bottom Line
The analyst believes the current Bitcoin price action, with its untouched highs and resistance levels, is a setup for a significant price increase. He thinks a major bullish move towards new all-time highs is on the horizon.
