BTC Sideway to BullishBitcoin / U.S. dollarBITSTAMP:BTCUSDYES_GroupDuring the latest weekly close, Bitcoin traded with heightened volatility but managed to maintain its position above key support levels. Despite facing pressure from the still-elevated interest rate environment, which has caused some investors to reduce short-term exposure to risk assets, Bitcoin has remained relatively resilient. The primary supportive factor for Bitcoin continues to be strong institutional demand and sustained inflows into Spot Bitcoin ETFs. These factors have helped maintain capital flows into the cryptocurrency market, providing support against periodic profit-taking pressure. In addition, overall market sentiment has shifted back toward a more risk-on environment following the easing of geopolitical tensions between the United States and Iran. This has encouraged investors to return to equities and digital assets. Meanwhile, accumulation by large holders remains another key factor supporting prices. Recently, Bitcoin rebounded from a major support zone and reclaimed the $63,000 level. In the near term, Bitcoin's performance is expected to remain closely linked to global liquidity conditions and investors' appetite for risk assets. Continued institutional inflows could provide further momentum for prices to challenge higher resistance levels. Overall, Bitcoin is expected to maintain a Sideway-to-Bullish outlook, supported by institutional capital inflows, strong demand through Spot Bitcoin ETFs, and improving risk sentiment. Nevertheless, short-term volatility may persist due to profit-taking activity and changes in global capital flows. Forecast: 22–26 June 2026 Technical Outlook Bitcoin has the potential to rebound again from the ascending trendline support after experiencing selling pressure in the middle of the week. The RSI has recovered above the 40 level, indicating that bearish momentum is fading. Meanwhile, the MACD has started to reduce its negative momentum and may form a bullish crossover if buying interest continues to strengthen. The overall structure remains Sideway Up, with prices holding above the $63,000 base. The area between $64,581 and $66,000 remains a key resistance zone, as it has repeatedly attracted selling pressure in the past. Main Scenario If Bitcoin can maintain trading above $63,500, it could advance toward the first resistance at $64,581. A successful breakout above this level may trigger further upside momentum toward $66,000 – $66,879, which represents the major resistance zone for this week. However, if the price fails to break above $64,581, short-term profit-taking could emerge, leading to a pullback toward the $63,000 support area and the ascending trendline. A breakdown below this support may expose Bitcoin to a deeper correction toward $61,800 – $62,000.
