Bitcoin (BTC) starts a new week in a price range that frustrates traders and leaves little to the imagination — what next?

After precious little activity over the weekend, the largest cryptocurrency lacks direction, and even macroeconomic triggers have failed to shift the status quo.

At around 10% below the $30,000 mark, BTC/USD is treading water, and despite calls for a further correction, market participants are dealing with a tiny active trading range.

Liquidity is there to be taken above and below, but so far, only a tease of a liquidity sweep has materialized.

The coming days have some potential macro surprises in store, but analysts agree it will take a significant shift in the data to crack a stubborn Bitcoin.
