Exchange reserves spiked +623K ETH May 5-13, classic distribution pattern. ETF outflows $131M May 13 confirms institutional exit. 24h range $2,096.36-$2,192.13 shows rejection at upper bound, compression toward lows.

No bounce structure, no momentum recapture. 72% NO — invalid if macro reversal or whale buying resurfaces within window.
