$BR Price structure and volume are carrying the argument on right now, and after the recent rally, the evidence that matters most is no longer the rally itself — it is the first pullback.
​
The level doing that work is 1.12598. It is a local reaction point, nothing more: a test of behaviour. A touch there needs to show absorption — sellers met, price closed back above — rather than a wick through followed by a lazy drift. If that response appears, then 1.17903 earns its place as the next area worth watching, strictly after the defence shows up, not before.
​
Sitting underneath is 1.09176, and it has a different job entirely. That is structural invalidation: losing it does not merely fail one retest, it removes the higher-high, higher-low read under the whole move. Treating a slip through 1.12598 as fatal, or a hold above 1.09176 as proof of health, mixes up two roles that need to stay separate.
​
The counterweights are open interest and the current funding snapshot; neither confirms the strength the way price and volume do. Constructive with positioning caution is the honest read.
