Trader Notes:

Crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez said a pullback to $60,000 shouldn’t be viewed as bearish, as it could help Bitcoin complete an inverse head-and-shoulders pattern. A breakout above $66,500 would confirm the setup and could pave the way for a rally toward $74,000.

Trader KillaXBT believes this cycle could be the first where Bitcoin remains above the key blue support band, a level that has historically signaled major bullish trend reversals.

As long as BTC holds above it, the trader sees no strong reason to expect the current cycle to deviate from past rallies that led to significant upside.

Daan Crypto Trades noted Bitcoin is retesting local resistance, with $65,000 acting as the key breakout level. A move above that threshold could open the door for another attempt at reclaiming the $67,000 local high.
