Bitcoin is holding a $60,000–$73,000 range, but multiple bearish chart structures suggest a deeper move could follow if $60,000 breaks. A multi-day close above $76,000 and a retest near $75,000 are described as key to invalidating the pattern. Some analysts also point to $52,500 as a downside level, while derivatives data show liquidation risk clustered around $63,000–$65,000.

On April 1, U.S. equities finished higher while Bitcoin hovered near $69K, then on April 2 it slid to about $66K, a 4% drop, as oil jumped from $97 to $108. The move followed President Donald Trump's mixed comments on the West Asia crisis, while options positioning and other hedging signals pointed to continued caution into April.

Bitcoin was rejected near $69,000 on Wednesday and held around $66,000 through the week as oil jumped and risk appetite softened. Private credit fund redemption limits, rising US continuing jobless claims, ETF outflows, and reported miner/corporate sales have added near-term pressure. Traders are watching whether BTC can keep support into the Easter market closure while the $75,000 target remains dependent on improving risk perception.

Crypto ETF flows reversed after two days of inflows, led by bitcoin products posting $173.73 million in net redemptions. Ether ETFs also slipped to a $7.10 million outflow even as several funds took in money, while XRP ETFs saw a $1.32 million exit and Solana ETFs again showed no activity.

Bitcoin moved under $66,000 after President Donald Trump's tougher remarks on Iran reversed the prior day's rally above $69,000. The pullback pushed total crypto liquidations past $440 million, including $274 million in long positions, while analysts flagged $65,500 as a key level that could amplify forced selling if broken.

Crypto analyst Minga says Bitcoin is nearing a macro bottom and argues the $58,900–$54,500 range could act as a spot-buying area this cycle. He also outlined a max-pain scenario down to $37,000, while keeping a longer-term projection of a move beyond $120,000 and potentially toward $190,000 in the next bull cycle.

On March 5, 2026, trader Maji (Huang Licheng) rolled over and increased his Ethereum long to roughly $14.4 million, lifting the average entry from $2,023 to $2,066 and placing liquidation at $2,035. The position showed about $350,000 in unrealized profit (around a 60% return) and included a take-profit range of $2,130 to $2,202 to close 10% partially.

HBAR saw fresh ETF demand in March 2026, logging $2.12 million of net inflows and placing fourth among spot crypto ETF products. Even so, analysts cited $0.098 as a key level to reclaim, while derivatives data showed $184K in liquidations and a 24-hour long/short ratio of 0.94.
