Bitcoin Uptrend Remains Alive Despite Bearish Pressure Below $78,800

Source Newsbtc

Bitcoin continues to show resilience despite mounting bearish pressure below the critical $78,800 resistance zone. While short-term volatility and repeated rejections have slowed bullish momentum, the broader market structure still indicates an active uptrend, as buyers continue to defend key support levels and position for another potential rebound. 

BTC Finds New Support Around The $77,000 Region

In a recent market assessment, Ultimae highlights that while Bitcoin briefly dipped below the $78,700 support level, the $77,000 zone is currently functioning as the primary defensive floor. This transition suggests that the market is successfully absorbing the recent selling pressure, with $77,000 acting as a key technical pivot for bulls to stabilize the price.

Currently, market participants are closely monitoring the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as a decisive technical indicator. The asset’s ability to hold above this moving average suggests that short-term momentum is attempting to base, providing a foundation for the next potential leg of the move.

Should price action result in a clear breach of this immediate support, $75,700 is the next immediate area of interest where liquidity may be gathered. Further downside pressure from that point would bring the $73,500 support into focus, a level that has historically served as a critical zone for institutional interest.

Despite the recent pullback, Ultimae maintains a distinctly bullish perspective, asserting that Bitcoin’s broader uptrend remains firmly intact. The analyst views the current price decline as a healthy consolidation phase rather than a shift in the longer-term structural trend.

To invalidate this upward structure, the price would need to break decisively through the support line of the red box highlighted on the chart. Until that boundary is breached, the current market environment is viewed as constructive. While a minor drift toward $73,500 remains a possibility, the expectation is for a recovery bounce to materialize soon.

Bitcoin Rebounds Strongly After Triple Retest Of Bullish Order Block

Bitcoin has demonstrated resilience by retesting the 4-hour bullish order block (OB) three times, resulting in a healthy rebound of $1,700 that successfully cleared the $77,400 resistance level. According to analyst Qingtianbtc, this recovery to the $78,300 level and the subsequent move toward the 4-hour bearish OB are well within expected market behavior.

The current upward movement is interpreted as a temporary relief rally rather than a trend reversal. Investors should anticipate that any push into the $78,300 to $78,800 range will serve as a point of exhaustion before the asset resumes its downward trajectory. Meanwhile, the 4-hour bearish OB, spanning from $78,800 to $79,600, currently acts as a zone of significant resistance. ng the asset, as a sustained breakout above this range remains unlikely in the immediate term.
