Bitcoin just had a crazy move yesterday đ„
#BTC surged nearly 8%, making many traders believe the bullish trend was finally back.
But the move also triggered a massive short squeeze:
âą $1.37B+ in short positions liquidated
âą One whale reportedly lost around $48.8M đ
Now Bitcoin is sitting right around the MA200 on the 1D chart, making this a very important level to watch.
But thereâs something even more important here. đ
Bitcoin is also testing a major descending trendline resistance that connects the $97K â $82K â $69K rejection areas.
đ $97K â major high on January 14, 2026
đ $82K â major rejection zone, On May 6th
đ $69Kâ$70K â current trendline test
So $BTC is now at a major decision point.
đą Bullish Scenario
If BTC breaks the $70.7Kâ$71K zone with strong volume and sustains above the descending trendline, the breakout becomes much more interesting.
âĄïž First target: $72Kâ$74K
âĄïž If $74K holds strongly â $76K
âĄïž Sustaining above $76K â $80Kâ$82K
A clean breakout above this long-term trendline would be a major technical development and could signal that Bitcoin is finally breaking out of the larger bearish structure.
đŽ Bearish Scenario
If sellers defend the $69Kâ$70K trendline and BTC fails to reclaim $70.7Kâ$71K, we could see another rejection.
If price loses the MA200 / $68.5K area:
âĄïž First targets: $66Kâ$65K
âĄïž Deeper weakness â $63Kâ$62K
That could bring Bitcoin back into the broader consolidation range.
