Bitcoin (BTC) sits in the middle of its 52-week range. No stored squeeze fuel in either direction — positioning here is context, not a signal.
The weekly change is still moving in the same direction as the net position — the crowd is adding, not unwinding. Positioning that accelerates late is penalised: −1.45% over the following 8 weeks (t = −2.8) in our sample.
