Bitcoin rebounded sharply from $81,200 to $83,439 before facing renewed selling pressure. Momentum is improving, but bulls still need to overcome resistance.

🎯 KEY PRICE LEVELS
🟢 Support
- $82,000–$82,100 — immediate support
- $81,200 — recent swing low
- $80,684 — deeper support
🔴 Resistance
- $82,565–$82,700 — first hurdle
- $83,100–$83,439 — major resistance zone

WHAT TO WATCH
✅ A sustained break above $83,439 with strong volume could extend the recovery.
⚠️ A loss of $82,000 could expose $81,200 and potentially $80,684.
My take: The weekly trend remains constructive, but the rejection at $83,439 shows that sellers are still active. Avoid chasing the spike; wait for confirmation around key levels.
Trade the setup, not the emotion. Manage risk.
