📊 Bitcoin (BTC) Weekly Trading Plan | Week 3 of April 2026

💰 Current Price: $74,720

📅 Planning Period: April 20 – April 27, 2026

🧠 This Week’s Market Outlook

Bitcoin is currently in a consolidation phase after a rally, with the market pausing following strong upward momentum. The price trend is now oscillating between continuing to make new highs or undergoing a controlled correction.

This week is very important because BTC is in a decision zone; the breakout direction will determine the next major trend. Technical analysis shows BTC is oscillating within the $73,700 - $76,200 USDT range, with both 15-minute and 4-hour cycles showing bullish trends. The RSI indicator is showing a divergence at the lows, suggesting weakening downward momentum.

Key macro factors:

US Bitcoin ETF has seen net inflows of nearly $1 billion for the third consecutive week

Tether recently increased holdings by 951 BTC (about $70.5 million) transferred into reserve wallets
