Bitcoin is holding near $71,000 after bouncing off critical support, signaling potential for a significant breakout. Technical analysis shows the asset is at a pivotal juncture, with momentum slowing but structure still favoring bulls if support holds.
Analyst Columbus notes that a successful rebound from channel support has re-established bullish momentum. Immediate resistance lies above, with major liquidity clusters between $75,000 and $76,000 marking the next target if overhead supply clears.
However, downside risk remains. A failure to defend $71,000 could trigger a sweep toward $65,580, where fresh buying interest may emerge. Lennaert Snyder warns of exhaustion in the current range and plans to add short exposure near $72,400.
Snyder targets the lower liquidity zone at $65,580, maintaining 80% position sizing at that level. Long entries are on hold until higher time frame resistance breaks or deeper support absorbs selling pressure. Market direction now hinges on whether recent gains hold or give way to renewed bearish pressure.
