BTC's current spot price at ~$68.1k makes $70k an immediate, low-resistance retest, requiring less than a 3% upside move. In contrast, $90k demands a 32%+ surge, a move typically needing significant fresh liquidity or a massive short squeeze. Derivatives data shows substantial options OI at the $70k strike across next month's expiries, acting as a clear magnet, far exceeding any immediate gravitational pull at $90k. Near-term order book liquidity confirms this shallower immediate barrier. We're targeting the proximal resistance. 95% YES — invalid if BTC closes below $65k before hitting $70k.
