Recently, Bitcoin reached the $70,000 region and tapped a key supply zone on the 1-hour timeframe. This area previously acted as resistance, meaning sellers were likely waiting there to take profits or open short positions.

As expected in technical analysis, when price enters a strong supply zone, selling pressure increases — and that’s exactly what happened.

🔎 What Caused the Drop?

Here’s a simple breakdown for beginners:

1️⃣ Supply Zone Reaction

The $70K level aligned with a 1H supply area. Supply zones are regions where large sellers previously stepped in. When price revisits these zones, it often faces rejection.

2️⃣ Profit Taking Near Psychological Level

$70,000 is a major psychological level. Round numbers often attract heavy profit-taking, especially after strong upward momentum.

3️⃣ Short-Term Target Achieved

After rejection from supply, Target 1 was achieved as expected, confirming the short-term downside reaction.

🎯 What’s Next?

The next downside level to watch is $66,000.

If bearish momentum continues and lower timeframes maintain a bearish structure, price may move toward that level. However:

  • If buyers step in strongly before $66K

  • Or if market structure shifts bullish again

Then the pullback could be temporary.

🧠 What Beginners Should Learn From This

  • Price reacts strongly at supply and demand zones.

  • Psychological levels (like $70K) increase volatility.

  • Always wait for confirmation instead of predicting blindly.

  • Targets should be planned before entering trades.

Markets move in cycles: impulse → correction → continuation or reversal.

Right now, this looks like a technical correction from a supply zone — not necessarily a full trend reversal.
