After a week of volatility, BTC failed to close Friday above the key resistance, casting doubt on immediate bullish continuation. However, analysts remain cautiously optimistic as price action still holds above major support, and a strong weekly close could shift sentiment decisively.<\/p>\n<p>Top analyst Daan highlighted that since the market\u2019s recovery two weeks ago, we\u2019ve seen a consistent Coinbase premium\u2014a bullish signal often linked to spot buying pressure from US-based investors. This premium had previously traded down amid heightened uncertainty surrounding Middle Eastern geopolitical tensions but has since rebounded, reflecting improved market confidence.<\/p>\n<p>Now, traders are closely watching the weekend price action to determine whether Bitcoin can reclaim $112K and enter price discovery, or if another rejection will send it into a deeper consolidation phase. With key macro narratives easing and <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-unrealized-profit-ratio-reaches-80-still-far-from-distribution-levels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">on-chain signals<\/a> improving, the weekend could provide a critical clue about Bitcoin\u2019s short-term trajectory\u2014and whether altcoins can follow with renewed strength.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Range Tightens As Market Awaits Breakout Signal<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin is preparing for a decisive move, one that could trigger renewed bullish momentum across the crypto market, particularly for altcoins. For the past several days, BTC has been consolidating in a well-defined range between $103,000 and $110,000. A clear breakout above this resistance or breakdown below support is expected to spark a swift move, as traders await confirmation of the next directional trend.<\/p>\n<p>The broader macroeconomic environment has become more favorable. With uncertainty from global geopolitical tensions subsiding and US fiscal policies gaining clarity, the stage appears set for Bitcoin to enter a bullish phase over the coming months. However, risks still linger. US Treasury Yields are rising again, and inflation has not stabilized, factors that could inject volatility and hesitation into risk markets.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DaanCrypto\/status\/1941161809760702859\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Daan pointed out<\/a> a consistent Coinbase premium since the recovery began two weeks ago\u2014a bullish indicator suggesting persistent spot demand, particularly from US-based buyers. This premium had weakened during the wave of Middle Eastern concerns, but it has since rebounded and held steady. Daan adds that this is supported by strong ETF inflows, a sign of institutional confidence.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-523616 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/btc_c0c45b.jpeg?resize=980%2C395\" alt=\"Coinbase Bitcoin Premium Index | Source: Daan on X\" width=\"980\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/btc_c0c45b.jpeg?w=1062 1062w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/btc_c0c45b.jpeg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/btc_c0c45b.jpeg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/btc_c0c45b.jpeg?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/btc_c0c45b.jpeg?w=750 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\"><\/p>\n<p>Still, caution is warranted. If Bitcoin stalls while ETF inflows remain high, that could mark a local top, as seen in previous cycles. For now, as long as price continues to follow the strength of inflows and maintains support above $103K, the bulls remain in control. A break above $110K could open the gates to new all-time highs, while a loss of support could lead to a sharp correction and delay broader recovery across the crypto landscape.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Daily Chart Analysis: Eyes On $112K Breakout<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin continues to trade within a key range between $103,600 and $109,300, consolidating just below its all-time high near $112,000. As shown on the daily chart, BTC has held above the 50-day simple moving average (SMA), which currently sits at $106,469, acting as dynamic support during recent pullbacks. This indicates ongoing strength in the trend, despite short-term volatility.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-523618 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?resize=980%2C570\" alt=\"BTC consolidates in a tight range | Source: BTCUSDT chart on TradingView\" width=\"980\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?w=2368 2368w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/BTCUSD_2025-07-04_20-50-47.png?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\"><\/p>\n<p>The chart also reveals that price has tested the $109,300 resistance level multiple times since March, but without a decisive breakout. Volume during these retests has been relatively muted, suggesting that bulls may be waiting for stronger confirmation before committing to a sustained breakout move. On the downside, $103,600 remains a crucial support level, historically providing a springboard for rebounds throughout the last two months.<\/p>\n<p>The 100-day and 200-day SMAs at $98,544 and $96,364, respectively, are still trending upward, reinforcing the long-term bullish structure. If Bitcoin can decisively close above $109,300 on strong volume, price discovery could quickly follow, with $120,000 and beyond as potential targets. However, failure to hold current levels may open the door for a retest of $100K or lower, making this range-bound phase critical for the market\u2019s next direction.<\/p>\n<p>Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin enters the weekend in an uncertain position, struggling to break above its all-time high of $112,000, while altcoins face increasing pressure and retrace to lower levels.
