BIT Research: Bitcoin Approaches Key Support, April May See Directional Decision Period

Repeated Support Tests: Trend Fragility Remains Unresolved

Since entering a downtrend in October 2025, Bitcoin has tested the key support zone for the third time. Historically, similar structures often play out as follows: after losing support, the price rapidly declines, forms a temporary low, and attempts to establish new support, but the overall downtrend is not truly reversed. The market’s return to a similar level indicates that the lower support is still undergoing repeated validation, with no significant improvement in trend fragility.

From a rhythm perspective, such low-level consolidation typically does not immediately confirm a directional shift. Instead, it requires a period of volatility before entering the next phase of movement. The current $65,000–$66,000 range has become a critical watershed. A decisive break below this level could push the market into another accelerated decline phase, potentially targeting even lower zones.

Liquidity and Macros Dominate: Rhythm Overrides Direction

April has historically been viewed as a relatively strong month, but data shows this pattern is not stable. Especially when Bitcoin enters April in a non-bullish state, price action often shows phased divergence. This cycle, Bitcoin is entering the month in a relatively neutral state, similar to the environment before previous rallies, but the short-term rhythm remains cautious.

More crucially, the market’s dominant drivers have shifted from a single narrative to liquidity and macro variables. Rising oil prices are boosting inflation expectations, reinforcing market judgments that central banks will maintain a hawkish stance, while also supporting the US dollar—factors historically negative for Bitcoin. Furthermore, slowing stablecoin growth and ETF flows’ sensitivity to policy signals reflect that liquidity has not yet formed sustained upward momentum.

From a temporal structure perspective, the internal rhythm within April is also key: liquidity tends to be thin and volatility amplified early in the month; mid-month sees a dense release of macro data and policy expectations; only after the FOMC meeting concludes towards month-end might the market gradually find clearer direction. This means that, compared to simply predicting up or down, timing the rhythm will become a more critical trading variable.

Overall, Bitcoin remains in a relatively fragile stage, with short-term downward pressure not yet fully released. Under a baseline scenario, the market may continue its weak performance in the first half of April. If the key support zone is breached, the pace of decline could accelerate further. However, from a cycle positioning perspective, this weakening phase may be approaching its latter stages. As tax-related selling pressure gradually subsides and policy expectations stabilize, the market environment is expected to see marginal improvement. Even if a rebound occurs, momentum is more likely to emerge gradually in mid-to-late April. For investors, the current phase is not suitable for relying on simple seasonal patterns. Instead, focus should be on changes in liquidity, macro variables, and positioning structure, waiting for clearer recovery signals to emerge while controlling risk.
