Trader Notes: Crypto trader Jelle notes Bitcoin remains rangebound with no major changes; $150,000 remains the ultimate target.

Ted Pillows highlights $12 billion in BTC shorts could be liquidated on a 10% rally, while $6.98 billion in longs are at risk if BTC drops 10%. The market's max pain leans bullish, though CPI data and the U.S.-China trade deal will influence outcomes.

Crypto Tony reports Bitcoin was rejected at triangle resistance and is watching $111,200 for a potential entry if it holds.

Daan Crypto Trades notes Bitcoin's recent range of $107,000–$112,000.

A break above ~$116,000 could signal the end of the correction and higher levels, while a drop below $107,000 may trigger a wick fill and potentially push BTC below $100,000.

Daan concludes bulls are currently in control, but volatility remains high and sentiment is shifting quickly.
