Investor positioning shifts amid ETF inflows and regulatory clarity

Crypto markets are under pressure as Bitcoin slips beneath $108,000, with market participants closely monitoring the pivotal $107,800 support—which serves as a crucial cost basis for many investors. Regulatory clarity in the U.S., recently enhanced by the CLARITY Act that defines digital assets as commodities or investment contracts, has fostered some institutional confidence and innovation. ETF inflows remain robust, signaling expanding institutional adoption. The Federal Reserve’s anticipated September rate decision could further influence liquidity and risk sentiment in the coming months.

Bearish momentum dominates as major indicators point to oversold zone

Bitcoin remains below the MA-20 and MA-50, while holding above the MA-200, leaving it caught between short-term selling pressure and long-term structural support. The Kijun from the Ichimoku system at $115,912.05 is now the nearest resistance, with the MA-200 as key support. Indicators reflect ongoing bearish sentiment — daily MACD shows a sell, the ADX is weak at 15.41, and intraday oscillators (RSI at 34.86, Stoch RSI, CCI) are oversold despite sellers controlling the session. The Awesome Oscillator stays neutral, and Bitcoin trades toward the bottom of the daily range ($107,270 – $108,450.70) amid moderate volatility.

Limited upside seen as consolidation prevails barring resistance break

For the next five sessions, price action is expected within $106,917.51 to $108,101.00. Only one of four key weekly signals (MACD) shows a potential for buying, meaning upside probabilities are low — less than 20%. The base case is a sideways consolidation around present levels, with a bullish scenario requiring a break above $115,900. A decline below $106,917 would trigger a bearish breakdown toward the MA-200.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees Bitcoin trading in a narrow range with persistent short-term downside risk while long-term structure remains intact above the $101,305.12 MA-200. He believes the base case is sideways consolidation unless key resistance at $115,912 is reclaimed, with less than 20% probability for upside in the near term. "Until Bitcoin breaks above $115,900 or loses the $106,917 support, my preference is capital preservation over chasing positions in this choppy environment."
