In my previous Bitcoin analysis, I argued that BTC would eventually break above resistance and continue higher toward the 90k zone.
However, the latest price action changed the picture significantly.
The market reacted positively to the news initially (clarity act) and managed to spike back toward resistance, but instead of confirming the bullish breakout, Bitcoin failed to follow through and reversed sharply lower.
And technically, that matters a lot.
Because the market didn’t just reject resistance.
It also broke both:
- the ascending trend line
- and the horizontal support zone
This combination is not something bulls should ignore lightly.
In my opinion, one of the most important details here is psychological: even with positive news and bullish expectations already in the market, BTC still failed to break higher.
When a market receives favorable conditions and still cannot continue up, it often signals exhaustion rather than strength.
Technical Perspective
At this moment, the structure shifted clearly weaker.
The 79k–80k area, which previously acted as support and breakout zone, now becomes resistance.
And unless Bitcoin manages to reclaim this area convincingly, rallies should probably be viewed carefully rather than chased aggressively.
Trading Plan
For now, I switch to a bearish short-term view.
If price rallies back toward the 79k–80k zone and gives me confirmation signals, I will look for selling opportunities.
Main downside target:
🎯 71,500 zone
At this stage, for me, the failed breakout attempt says more than the bullish news itself.
Because strong markets usually break resistance on good news.
