    Bitcoin Price Analysis: Key Support and Resistance Levels to Watch Now

    Story Highlights
    • Bitcoin's price has slightly declined this month but is showing signs of recovery towards $80K. ย 

    • On-chain data indicates short-term holders are panic selling at a loss, viewed by some as a long-term buying opportunity. ย 

    • Key resistance and support levels are being closely watched for potential major price movement.

    At the beginning of April, Bitcoin was trading at $82,539. Since then, it has dropped by more than 3.27%. But now, the price is showing early signs of a recovery as it slowly climbs back toward the important $80,000 level. At the same time, on-chain data shows signs of panic selling from short-term holders, which some analysts believe could actually be a long-term buying opportunity.

    With major support and resistance levels now in focus, the market could be gearing up for a big move. Hereโ€™s what you need to know.

    On-Chain Data Shows Panic Selling

    The BTC Short-Term Holders SOPR (Spent Output Profit Ratio) indicator is currently moving downward. This means many short-term Bitcoin holdersโ€”those who have owned their coins for less than 155 daysโ€”are selling at a loss.

    A SOPR value below 1 indicates that coins are being sold for less than what they were bought for. Right now, that’s exactly whatโ€™s happening. This trend is often a sign of fear or panic in the market.

    Analysts See a Pattern: Past Dips Led to Highs

    A crypto analyst who goes by FOUR Crypto Spaces on X compares the current drop in Bitcoinโ€™s price to earlier dipsโ€”specifically the fall to $60K in 2024 and the dip to $26K in 2023. He believes these patterns show that market pullbacks are often followed by strong recoveries and new highs.

    BTC Price Action: Key Resistance and Support Levels      

    Since yesterday, Bitcoin has gained nearly 1.82%. Its current price is $79,839โ€”just 0.17% below the important $80,000 level.

    A German analyst known as cb on X says that Bitcoin needs to break above $83,739 and $84,689 to continue moving higher. These are now seen as the next key resistance levels.

    On April 6, Bitcoin dropped sharply to a low of $77,212, driven by heavy market volatility. According to cb, if BTC falls below the $75,762 to $74,458 range, it could lead to further losses.

    Still Bearish? Maybe Not for Long

    Although thereโ€™s still some downward pressure in the market, the recent bounce has given traders a reason to be optimistic. Some see this dip as a healthy correction and a possible setup for Bitcoinโ€™s next upward run.
