Excerpts from the article

The weekly range further illustrates the stalemate: Bitcoin has traded between $61,824.97 and $65,600.00, with the upper boundary acting as a near-term ceiling. A contracting triangle pattern on the hourly chart, with resistance at $68,400, suggests that a decisive move may be approaching, but direction remains uncertain.

On the downside, a loss of the current consolidation zone could accelerate selling pressure. If Bitcoin fails to hold above $67,000, the next support sits at $65,000, followed by the $64,700 level. A deeper correction could expose the $62,000 accumulation zone, where disciplined traders have identified high-probability buying opportunities based on historical order flow.

Conversely, a clean break above $69,550 resistance could open the path toward $70,000 and potentially $70,500. Some analysts see a 67% probability favoring an upward move in the near term, supported by the ETF inflows and improving regulatory sentiment, including the CLARITY Act under Senate consideration.

Yet the market remains in a state of consolidation, with momentum slowing and no clear impulsive direction. The daily chart reflects a structure that favors patience, as neither bulls nor bears have seized control. The 4-hour timeframe shows a market reacting to nearby liquidity levels, with recent attempts to rally stalling near $90,000 in prior weeks, highlighting the persistent selling pressure at higher levels.
