Look, Bitcoin is testing a small resistance now in April and has already moved significantly from where it was in February. Remember when it was testing a small pressure around $68K? Well, now we're at $77.71K and the dynamics have changed quite a bit.
But here’s what I learned from observing these charts: when BTC tests a small resistance zone (like they do before each pump), it’s important to watch the volume and RSI. If the candle closes above with expanded volume and RSI above 50, it’s usually a sign of a real breakout, not a false one.
That consolidation we saw back then between $66K-$68K was exactly that – testing a small resistance multiple times until gaining strength. Now that it’s broken through, the next technical targets would be $80K, then $85K.
The risk? If it falls below $76K with volume, it returns to the support at $72K. But as long as it tests a small pressure above $77K with volume, we’re still in an uptrend. Tight stops are essential in this volatility.
