As of April 8, 2026, Bitcoin (BTC) has experienced a strong rebound driven by easing geopolitical tensions (US-Iran ceasefire), currently trading at $71,737, up 4.68% in the past 24 hours, with a peak near $72,700.

Core Driver: News Triggering Short Squeeze

This rally is mainly driven by risk appetite recovery. The temporary ceasefire agreement between the US and Iran directly alleviates market fears of escalating Middle East conflicts, causing safe-haven assets like oil to retreat and funds to flow back into risk assets. As a result, approximately $598 million was liquidated across the network in the past 24 hours, with over 70% of the liquidations being short positions, indicating a typical short squeeze fueled by passive short covering.

Technical Structure: Breakthrough of Key Resistance but No Confirmed Reversal

The current price has broken through the psychological level of $70,000, indicating a short-term bullish structure, but overhead resistance remains heavy.

Key Levels:

Strong Support: $68,500 - $70,000 (maintains strength if not retested downward intraday).

Strong Resistance: $72,500 - $75,000 (previous dense trading zone and 50-day moving average resistance).

Critical Level: $65,000 (a break below this invalidates the rebound structure).

Trend Qualitative: Still within an oversold rebound category. Although the daily candle closed with a large bullish candle, the weekly chart remains in a recovery phase after a correction from the $126,200 all-time high, and no reversal trend has formed yet.

Funds and On-Chain Signals

Institutional Movements: The US spot Bitcoin ETF has recently shifted to net inflows (e.g., approximately $470 million net inflow on April 7), indicating traditional capital is willing to accumulate around $68,000.

On-Chain Data: Exchange balances continue to decline, and long-term holders (LTH) have not shown large-scale selling, suggesting chips are shifting from weak hands to strong hands, solidifying bottom support.

Trading Strategy Reference

Bullish Strategy: Use $68,500 as a defense level; if retested downward without breaking, consider light long positions aiming for $75,000.

Risk Control: If the price stalls or volume diminishes in the $72,500 - $75,000 zone, consider reducing positions to take profits. A confirmed break below $68,000 warrants exiting and observing.

⚠️ Risk Warning: Geopolitical news is highly volatile. If the ceasefire agreement changes, the rally could quickly reverse. The above analysis is for reference only and does not constitute investment advice.
