Market Overview
On April 29th, BTC fell to a low of $61,756, entering a resistance area that sparked a bull counter-attack which drove the price up to a high of $64,734. The market is currently characterized by four key levels. If BTC falls below $61,100, it's likely to test the $56,000-$58,000 range. Remaining within the $61,100-$66,000 range signifies a usual consolidation period. Surpassing $66,000 is an indication of a strong bullish movement while holding above $68,000 suggests potential to challenge previous highs. Broadly, it is expected that BTC will continue to fluctuate within the $60,000-$68,000 range. This adjustment period has been ongoing for 6 weeks, and the market is watching for the ensuing main upward trend post-fluctuations.
