The longer an asset consolidates within a tight range, the more explosive the directional breakout tends to be once it finally breaks through support or resistance. This classic principle plays out repeatedly across crypto markets—patience during consolidation often precedes significant moves.

The longer the consolidation, the sharper the breakout. Is this wave coming?

The longer the consolidation, the more violent the breakout. I believe in this move, but I'm just worried it might be a false breakout again.

The longer it stays still, the more it moves. This wave will either surge or plummet; there is no third option in between.

yeah "patience during consolidation" is what they all say until you've been bagholding the same range for 8 months lmao. technically speaking tho, this tracks—learned this the hard way watching btc compress for literal quarters before absolutely nuking through my stop losses. the explosive part hits different when you're on the wrong side of it, ngl.

The longer the buildup, the fiercer the rebound... How many times have we heard this? The problem is that most people are pushed out before that moment arrives, and this is where the cruelty of the cycle lies.
