The analyst highlighted the $85,000 psychological level as being key to whether BTC drops to this target or witnesses another breakout to new highs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Price Risks Drop To $74,000 If This Happens<\/h2>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/chart\/BTCUSD\/sgV1GRKq-Bitcoin-at-83K-Is-This-the-Calm-Before-the-Next-Surge-or-a-Tr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">TradingView post<\/a>, Saeed mentioned a drop to $74,000 as his bearish scenario for the Bitcoin price. He explained that if price fails to break out and instead drops below $80,000, a correction would unfold toward $76,500 or even $74,000, which would present a re-entry opportunity for <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-long-term-holder-begin-accumulating\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">long-term bulls<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The analyst also noted that the Bitcoin price is currently consolidating just below the psychological $85,000 level after a historical bull run which pushed it to new <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-4-year-cycle-theory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">all-time highs (ATHs)<\/a>. Despite the recent downtrend, Saeed is optimistic that the bull run is still on. He stated that the market is cooling off and not crashing, with price action forming a high-tight flag, often a continuation signal after an uptrend.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, the bearish scenario still stands with a potential <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-rally-at-risk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">drop to $74,000<\/a>. Saeed remarked that with momentum slowing and volatility compressing, traders must prepare for a major breakout and breakdown in the coming days. He affirmed that the potential drop to this target is still healthy in the broader trend.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-446216\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Saeed.png?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C210\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"512\" height=\"210\"><\/p>\n<p>Analyzing the trend structure, the crypto analyst also confirmed that the Bitcoin price remains in a strong bullish trend. He noted that since the breakout above $69,000, the previous ATH from 2021, the rally has been aggressive and directional, overwhelming the BTC bears in the process.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Saeed further remarked that the Bitcoin price has formed a series of higher highs and higher lows, respecting a steep ascending trendline since early February. However, BTC is now coiling near the highs, forming a tight range between $80,000 and $83,500.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Bullish Scenario For BTC<\/h2>\n<p>Saeed also outlined a bullish scenario for <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-faces-stacked-resistance-at-89k-90k-range-insights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">the Bitcoin price<\/a>. He stated that a breakout and daily close above $85,000 would confirm the continuation pattern, targeting $88,000 first and then $90,000. The analyst added that volume and candle structure will be key to confirming the move.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the crypto analyst highlighted <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-the-ideal-buy-zone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">key resistance and support zones<\/a> to watch out for. He stated that the range between $83,000 and $85,000 is the immediate resistance as this area has repeatedly capped prices in recent sessions. As such, a daily close above this zone could trigger the next leg higher.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>$88,000 is another resistance zone, although that is the short-term if BTC were to rally higher. Saeed mentioned the range between $90,000 and $92,000 as the third resistance zone to watch out for. He stated that this range is a psychological milestone and a possible magnet for the Bitcoin price if bulls break out cleanly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Saeed mentioned $80,000, $76,500, and the range between $72,000 and $74,000 as the key support zones to watch out for. He remarked that the range between $72,000 and $74,000 is the major support and ideal retest level if the Bitcoin price corrects, as this is the level where many sidelined bulls are likely waiting to buy in.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $80,500, down almost 2% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/bitcoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">data<\/a> from CoinMarketCap.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/y8NYISux\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"2301\" height=\"1460\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crypto analyst Saeed has outlined a bearish case for the Bitcoin price, predicting that it could still drop to as low as $74,000.
