[MARKET] Today's Market | BTC: 85,423 USD | ETH: 2,694 USD
[NEWS] [Markets] BTC consolidates; rejected three times at 87,000 resistance
BTC traded in the 85,000 range today, with a current price of 85,423 USD on CoinMarketCap. It has made three attempts to break above the 87,000 level without success. Highs are gradually falling while lows are rising, forming a converging triangle. U.S. Treasury yields fell from 5.31% to 5.25%, and both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq closed at record highs. BTC failed to follow suit, suggesting that selling pressure at this level is outweighing positive macroeconomic factors.
Impact: Neutral to slightly bearish in the short term; waiting for a directional move
