Today (04/13/2026), Bitcoin is fluctuating in the range of approximately 71,000–73,000. What is happening is a typical sideways accumulation phase after a strong uptrend. This is the type of market where those who are impatient can easily get 'swept', while those who are patient and disciplined will have the advantage.
In terms of technical analysis, the chart is quite 'tense'. The price is trapped between a strong resistance zone around 73,500 and strong support near 70,500. The daily RSI around the level of 50 indicates a neutral current momentum. The MACD shows signs leaning towards bullish but remains weak, not enough to confirm the trend. Meanwhile, trading volume is gradually decreasing — usually a precursor to a large breakout.
From a macro perspective, the cooling US inflation is somewhat supportive of risk assets like Bitcoin. However, there's still pressure as funds pull out of ETFs and geopolitical situations remain unstable. Overall, the market is in a 'half hot, half cold' state. Nevertheless, the whales seem to be quietly accumulating — a notable signal.
On the upcoming scenario:
If Bitcoin breaks through 73,500, there's a good chance we’ll see a quick surge up to 75,500, possibly even targeting 78,000 or higher thanks to the short squeeze effect.
Conversely, if it drops below 70,500, the price could retrace to the 68,000 zone, and even deeper to 65,000.
Personal view: the market is 'coiling' up to prepare for a strong move, but it’s not ready to explode just yet. There might be a few fakeouts before the real trend reveals itself.
