Bitcoin is currently at a crucial price point, according to Michael van de Poppe, founder of MN Trading Capital. He stated on the X platform that if Bitcoin fails to hold its current level, it could fall below $65,000. However, he does not anticipate a new low. According to ChainCatcher, van de Poppe noted that a drop below $61,000 would be unlikely, as the 200-day moving average is positioned there, and further decline would not be beneficial in any market cycle.
Van de Poppe highlighted that the current market structure differs from the February downturn, where the range resistance failed to become a support level. He emphasized that the $71,000 area remains a critical support level that must be maintained to prevent further pullbacks. If this support holds, the $61,000 to $65,000 range could present an excellent buying opportunity for Bitcoin in the coming years.
Should the support level hold, van de Poppe's second phase target is a breakout above $76,600. Achieving this could lead to new highs and potentially trigger a robust altcoin summer rally.
