I have recently observed an interesting trend. Heavy inflows are coming into Bitcoin ETFs one after another. At the beginning of this week alone, an inflow of over $240 million was recorded. BlackRock's IBIT led the way, followed by Fidelity's FBTC and other providers. This indicates institutional buying.
This continuous pressure from Bitcoin ETFs has supported the price around the $72,000 area. But here’s the interesting part. Technical analysts are seeing a confusing picture. Bitcoin is trapped in a large range. On the upside, resistance is at $73,000–$74,000, and on the downside, support is at $66,000–$60,000. If these key levels break, a significant move could occur.
There is also interesting data in the derivatives market. Large stakeholders are buying, while traders are selling. This setup resembles what was seen before a major breakout in 2023. However, there’s no certainty that it will produce an immediate rally. Volatility is possible. The inflows into Bitcoin ETFs and corporate buying show underlying strength, but too many positions could be risky. Currently, it’s around $77,000–$78,000. The next move could be above $74,000 or a pullback.
