Bitcoin Consolidation Continues: Key Levels to Watch
Bitcoin's price has stabilized within a narrow range of $103,500 to $108,800 over the past six days. In order for a sustained uptrend to emerge, the price must establish $107,000 as a new support level. Analysts note that increasing liquidity on either side of the spot price indicates the potential for a breakout in either direction.

Looking back, Bitcoin has been forming a tightening range since May 30, remaining below critical resistance levels. Michael van de Poppe, founder of MN Capital, pointed out the importance of the $107,000 mark, stating, "No breakout above it yet, but if it happens, we're all the way toward a new ATH and $3,000 per $ETH."

Other analysts emphasize that consolidation could last a few more days unless the price climbs above $105,000, where the 50-day simple moving average currently resides. Jelle, a fellow analyst, stated, "Give me a couple more days of chop, drive everyone insane, and then we send it higher once more."

Investment firm QCP Capital has observed that favorable macro conditions could allow an upside breakout to reach new all-time highs, with institutional interest in bullish options suggesting growing confidence in recovery. However, caution remains as some traders believe Bitcoin may dip to around $100,000 to take out liquidity before any significant upward movement occurs.

Data from CoinGlass shows a notable increase in liquidity surrounding the current price range, with traders anticipating a volatility spike. AlphaBTC remarked, "If the market makers are looking for liquidity before another push higher, the cluster down to just below 100K looks like the target." Understanding these dynamics will be crucial for those monitoring Bitcoin’s price action in the coming days.
