According to the analyst, current market conditions could trap participants who expect a prolonged bull trend, as price action may end up forming a lower high instead of a sustained move upward.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst explained that while many traders are currently <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-rally-to-near-80k-fuels-sharp-sentiment-rebound-across-crypto-markets\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">expecting Bitcoin to confirm a higher high<\/a>, he believes the structure is more similar to previous rejection zones around\u00a0 $107,000 and $97,000. In those instances, the BTC price failed to sustain an upward move, forming lower highs that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-hit-last-bull-trap\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">trapped late buyers<\/a> as sellers stepped in aggressively to take profits.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-678112\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Bitcoin-chart-from-@Sherlockwhale.jpg?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C262\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"512\" height=\"262\"><\/p>\n<p>@Sherlockwhale suggests that a similar situation could develop again if Bitcoin approaches the critical level around $79,300. In his view, this area could serve as a turning point where bulls may get caught and possibly become exit liquidity. He outlined two potential <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-price-wave-down-to-40000-shows-when-the-bottom-will-begin\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">bearish outlooks<\/a> based on Bitcoin\u2019s weekly chart structure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the first scenario, he predicts that if Bitcoin closes the week below $79,300, he would consider that a signal to take a short position. In that case, he targets a sharp reversal toward $60,000, with invalidation above the current weekly wick.<\/p>\n<p>The second scenario assumes Bitcoin could move higher first before reversing to the downside. In that case, @Sherlockwhale expects the price to rally toward its next major resistance around $83,400, aligning with the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level on the chart. This area is also seen as a potential liquidity zone where buyers could get caught before a major downturn begins. Even in this case, the analyst\u2019s projected bearish target remains $60,000, likely viewing this level as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/60000-is-the-bitcoin-bottom\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">a potential bear market bottom<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>BTC To See More Upside Before Another Crash<\/h2>\n<p>Sharing similar bearish sentiment, market analyst Michael van de Poppe has <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/cryptomichnl\/status\/2048697300764049657?s=46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">predicted<\/a> that Bitcoin could see another strong upside move, extending its ongoing rebound, before <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-is-headed-for-40000\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">a steeper crash<\/a>. According to the analyst, BTC is currently holding critical levels around $76,000 after <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/why-bitcoin-price-failed-to-breach-80k-deep-dive\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">rallying above $79,000 just a day before<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Poppe notes that the cryptocurrency is still preparing for more upside and could be heading toward its next resistance levels between $85,000 and $88,000 by May.
