Earlier this week, Bitcoin’s pullback near its all-time high may have prompted short-term traders to lock in profits. Despite the price retreating to around $68,000, analysts remain optimistic, expecting Bitcoin to find solid support within the $65,000 to $68,000 range. The upcoming U.S. elections are the next significant catalyst for the crypto markets. A break above $70,000 in the near term could lift investor sentiment, driving renewed buying interest in select altcoins as well.

BTC after making the all-time high of $73,777 was trading in the ‘Descending Channel’ pattern. The asset gave a breakout above the channel and rallied up to $73,620. However, the bulls failed to cross the previous all-time and the prices witnessed some profit booking. BTC has struggled to give a weekly closing above the $70k mark in the past and this time also it failed to do that. Once it gives a weekly close above $70,000 and sustains above the previous all-time high then we may expect it to rally further.
Key Levels for BTC:
Support 1: $66,500
Support 2: $62,000
Resistance 1: $70,000
Resistance 2: $73,777
