Bitcoin just gave us a textbook signal that traders shouldn't ignore.

UST dominance hit record highs—historically this means Bitcoin takes a beating. But here's where it gets interesting: BTC formed a higher low instead of collapsing.

That's not normal. That's a divergence with real teeth.

What it's really telling us? When capital finally rotates back into risk assets, we're probably looking at Bitcoin breaking into fresh all-time highs. This setup has played out before, and the results speak for themselves.

Keep this pattern on your radar. If the liquidity picture shifts, the move could be swift.

Really? Can you directly infer ATH from a higher low? History isn't that simple; liquidity can change at any time.

Hmm... just a higher low. Is this really different this time? I’ve heard this kind of argument too many times.

ngl this wave of higher lows is indeed interesting, but I always feel like this kind of "historical pattern" will change next time...

Well, this divergence does have some substance, but I bet this rebound will be short-lived again. Wait and see how the capital flow develops; only a true shift will count.

Damn, higher low? I didn't see it, am I blind? Wait, is this really different this time? Honestly, I don't believe it, probably just creating FOMO again. I'm tired of hearing the term capital rotation; every time they say there's going to be rotation, but what happens? Breaking new highs? Ha, let's wait until liquidity moves first. Right now, it's just air.

This time it's different. The high and low points haven't been broken, and instead, it's a bottom-fishing... Is it really coming?

No, this time it's really a bit different. Are the high and low points more rigid than historical patterns?
