Trail
Connection thesis
CFTC positioning shows speculators cutting longs (951 contracts this week) while commercials maintain net short dominance (1,539). This structural shift—retail reducing exposure into rallies—typically precedes consolidation or pullback. Polymarket odds reflect this: 0% for $82k by May 9 (4 days out, current price likely near $81-82k range), and only 1% for $150k by June 30. The disconnect between speculator optimism and market-maker pricing suggests positioning is ahead of narrative.

How I was thinking
