Bitcoin has experienced a sudden bullish reaction, breaking through the 26k level, which is a positive sign for buyers who gain more confidence in the current market. However, although the price managed to surpass the important resistance at 26,400, it failed to close above this level. The day closed at a range of 24,680, indicating that buyers are likely to experience a short-term sideways movement at this resistance range.
During this period, the bulls may still reach the 26,800 price range, but this could also result in a pullback to 22,600, which will be a decision point for the current bullish momentum. If the momentum continues, Bitcoin could reach the 28k to 32k resistance area. The current week started on a bullish note, and the closing of the current weekly candle will determine if this is a sustainable trend or a trap. There is a possible technical analysis (TA) of 28k next if the 26,800 resistance is conquered.
Shorting the current price reaction to 26,400 may fail, as the current hanging man on that resistance is not enough assurance that the price will get rejected immediately. However, if the buyers fail on the second rejection, this could lead to a deeper pullback with a TA of 22,600 and 20,800.
