Trader Notes:
Technical analyst Lennaert Snyder says Bitcoin’s weekend rally is retracing as expected after rejecting the $65,800 level, leaving liquidity above those highs as a likely future upside target.
He is watching three potential long-entry zones, with the first around $63,500.
The preferred accumulation area remains around $60,000, while $59,000 is viewed as the extreme range low potentially offering the best risk-reward if buyers step in.
Snyder also cautioned traders to account for potential volatility ahead of this week’s FOMC meeting.
Trader KillaXBT argues that today’s calls for $50,000–$40,000 Bitcoin mirror the 2022 market, when many investors waited for $10,000–$12,000 after Bitcoin had already bottomed near $16,000.
He contends that buying at $16,000, $20,000, or even $25,000 all proved profitable, with those willing to enter early ultimately rewarded.
Applying the same logic now, being early may look wrong for a few months. However, he remains confident Bitcoin will exceed $160,000 this cycle and long-term gains will outweigh the timing of the entry.
