Bitcoin (BTC) is at a critical point where technical rebound and macro battles intersect. The core viewpoints and key variables are as follows:
Core Viewpoints
Short-term (1-2 weeks): Driven by easing geopolitical tensions (expectation of US-Iran ceasefire), the price has broken through the $70k psychological barrier, but faces strong resistance at $72,000, with a risk of technical correction.
Medium-term (1-3 months): Influenced by delayed Federal Reserve rate cut expectations and CPI data, it is expected to fluctuate widely between $60,000 and $75,000, making a single-sided surge unlikely.
Long-term (end of year): Institutions (such as Fidelity, Bernstein) generally believe the bull market cycle is not over, with target prices still in the range of $100,000 to $150,000, but volatility has narrowed compared to previous cycles.
Key Price Levels for Reference
Current Price: $69,691 (approximately 4.8% intraday increase).
Strong Resistance: $72,000 to $73,000, an area with dense trapped positions from previous declines; breaking through requires significant capital.
Short-term Support: $68,500 to $69,000, corresponding to the support of the 5-day and 30-day moving averages; a break below indicates weakening trend.
Critical Defensive Level: $66,000 to $67,000, seen as the bulls' lifeline; losing this support could lead the price to test $60,000.
Core Variables Influencing the Trend
Geopolitics: Progress in US-Iran negotiations is the immediate driver. If a ceasefire is reached, risk appetite will continue to rise; if negotiations break down, risk aversion will suppress prices.
Macroeconomic Data: Focus on the US March CPI data released on April 9. If inflation exceeds expectations due to oil prices and other factors, the probability of a Fed rate cut in June will decrease, which is bearish for risk assets including Bitcoin.
Technical Signals: A "double bottom" pattern is forming on the daily chart, but the KDJ indicator has entered overbought territory, indicating higher short-term risk in chasing the rally.
