Bitcoin posted a roughly 2% gain in March, breaking a five-month streak of monthly declines and marking its first positive monthly close after the longest sustained downturn since 2018, Cointelegraph reported. The rebound has revived debate over a potential trend shift. Historical patterns suggest that rallies can follow prolonged drawdowns: in 2019, a similar multi-month decline preceded an advance of about 300%. Some analysts say this cycle may have already set a "stage" bottom near $60,000. April seasonality is less clear. Since 2013, April has typically delivered gains, but in recent years the odds of a pullback have increased when March ends higher, leaving the near-term outlook uncertain. BTC is trading around $68,000. The first key resistance sits at $69,000–$70,000, with additional supply seen in the $70,000–$72,000 zone. A sustained breakout could open the door to $76,000 and potentially $80,000. Failure to clear those levels could keep prices in a range.

Flows remain concentrated in ARK Invest's ARKB and Fidelity's FBTC, while only limited capital has returned to BlackRock's IBIT, pointing to ongoing caution among institutions. In derivatives markets, funding rates stayed negative for most of the first quarter, suggesting shorts retained the upper hand as traders continued to pay for downside exposure. Bitfinex noted a sizable liquidation cluster sits below $66,500; a move higher could set off a short squeeze. Overall, it said confidence in the current rally remains subdued.
