[Old T's Big Mouth Brings a Rebound? But the Downtrend Still Dominates!]
Big Pancake's weekly chart continues to close in the red, with two bullish candles already erasing the previous large bullish candle, indicating a clear bearish trend.
On the daily chart, it has closed below the lower edge of the descending flag pattern for three consecutive days, confirming a breakdown. We previously predicted that after this breakdown, there wouldn't be an immediate waterfall decline; instead, there would be oscillation and a rebound to the lower edge of the pattern, which has been fully validated in recent days. The rebound has already completed, and the daily price has not yet moved back into the channel!
The only variable remains Old T's overly confident mouth—saying whatever he wants. Driven by news, Big Pancake has recently rallied back into the channel, but the overall trend remains unchanged. In my personal view, the daily close still struggles to stay above the channel, or it may be that after three days of upward pinning, the price continues to decline!
The first resistance level above is 68,600, with a major resistance at 72,000.
Let's also look at Big Pancake CME 4-hour chart. There is a gap present, roughly between 71,650 and 73,610 (CME values differ from exchange prices). The highest rebound on the 23rd was 71,860. The price entered this gap but did not fill it, indicating clear resistance. This rebound is unlikely to be much different; stopping at this gap is a high-probability event!
Currently, do not blindly chase the rally. Focus on shorting at high levels or observing. The immediate support below remains at 64,000, and the major support is still waiting for a break below 60,000, with an entry opportunity around 58,000 after that!

【Is ETH stronger than BTC? A comprehensive analysis of key support levels and rebound potential】
Bitcoin has finally ended its 49-day flag pattern consolidation. When it touched the lower boundary of the flag for the third time, there was no effective resistance. After a brief oscillation, it broke downward, forming a small waterfall decline.
Let's review this market movement, especially the latter half. Each rebound failed to reach important resistance levels, making the market look quite weak. However, influenced by the Iran conflict, the short-term trend is a mix of bulls and bears, changing rapidly, which makes trading quite challenging.
We previously mentioned that a descending flag pattern is meant to be broken downward. The timing is just a matter of when. The overall trend remains bearish, and the current movement aligns with our expectations.
Since the downward flag has been broken, it essentially confirms that this rebound has ended, and the market is returning to a downtrend.
On the daily chart, the MACD has formed a second death cross near the zero line, starting to move below zero into the bearish zone. The pattern looks weak, and the downward momentum is quite strong.
However, I believe it won't continue to fall sharply right away. It will likely oscillate first before heading lower.
There are two reasons: First, Bitcoin is approaching support levels around 64,000 to 65,000, which suggests a rebound is needed. Second, after breaking the descending flag, there is also a reason for a retest to confirm the validity of the breakdown.
But this rebound's initial height is limited, with the first resistance around 67,200. If it can break above and re-enter the flag pattern, there’s a chance to reach 72,000.
Personally, I remain cautious. The probability of encountering resistance at 67,200 and continuing downward is quite high. Be prepared mentally!
Looking further down, the only visible support is the previous low around 60,000. The expectation is that it will break through and dip to the 58,000–59,000 range before rebounding. Once it reaches this zone, the rebound strength should increase significantly. We will analyze specific levels when the price gets there!
Finally, let's talk about Ethereum. ETH's situation is similar to Bitcoin's, but since the last rebound was very strong, its pattern isn't as weak as Bitcoin's. The major support is around the trend line at 1,900, with potential for no new lows. The rebound is also expected to be stronger than Bitcoin's, with resistance around 2,100.
Trading strategy: The 58,000 level isn't far away—just a few points away. For those holding deep positions, be prepared to hold through. For those looking to add or enter the market, 58,000 is a good entry point for a strong buy.

【Fed "Hawk Call" Rings Loud! BTC Breaks Below 73,000, Is the Real Risk Just Beginning?】
The dust settled late night with the Federal Reserve's March 18, 2026 FOMC meeting conclusions: maintaining interest rates unchanged, planning only 1 rate cut for the year, raising inflation expectations, and adding Middle East risk warnings. Dot plot (interest rate path): End of 2026: 3.4% (only 1 rate cut for the year, 25bp), End of 2027: 3.1% (another 1 rate cut, 25bp), 2028 and long-term: 3.1% (long-term rates raised 0.1 percentage points from December).
Post-meeting, Powell released strong hawkish signals: emphasizing no rate cuts if inflation doesn't sustain its decline, while mentioning the possibility of rate hikes!
As mentioned in the previous analysis, my judgment on the market trend is relatively pessimistic, with one core reason being concerns that this meeting would bring more bearish news on top of no rate cuts. As expected, my concerns came true.
Bitcoin reacted early, accelerating after breaking below the 73,000 support level, currently oscillating around 70,000 support [see Chart 1]
Overall, Bitcoin still has some support here. There might be a spike down breaking 70,000, but there's a small rebound requirement. The probability of retracing upward to confirm trendline breakdown is still relatively high, with the current position around 74,000 [see Chart 2]
Looking at larger timeframes, daily divergence has already formed, the 2-day engulfing pattern of one yin swallowing three yangs—these all point to expectations that this rebound may be topping. Therefore, small rebounds aren't recommended for entry [see Chart 3]
Operationally, if you followed our recommendations and locked in profits by reducing positions in the 74,000-75,000 range, you can patiently wait for support opportunities at the bottom edge of the descending flag, positioned around 66,000. This offers both offensive and defensive advantages with high reward-to-risk ratios.
However, pay attention to this: if the flag pattern's bottom edge breaks effectively, there will be a small waterfall, with new lows being highly probable. The 58,000-59,000 range will be a better opportunity to catch the rebound!
Operational Recommendation: Wait for a retest at 74,000 USD, consider exiting, then re-enter at lower levels.

【Fed Rate Decision Approaching, Will BTC Reverse Course?】
After a series of small bullish steps, BTC has finally reached the top of the descending flag channel near the 75000 resistance zone—an important pressure level we've mentioned several times. As expected, it encountered resistance at the highs, currently leaving a small upper wick. 【See Chart 1】
From the 4-hour timeframe, the pullback from highs shows a rather obvious divergence, and the price action needs a correction and consolidation.
However, is this the end of this rebound? We need to focus on whether the daily close can hold above 75000, this critical level. If it can close above and consolidate, the market will likely move toward 80000. If it continues to trade below 75000, the risk of a top will increase significantly.
We need to pay close attention to the support at 73000. If this level is effectively broken on a downside move, the probability of this rebound ending is very high! 【See Chart 2】
From a personal subjective perspective, I'm leaning more bearish. First, after touching the important resistance level, there was no clean breakthrough; instead, the price fell back into the flag pattern, consuming too much bullish strength.
Second, the Federal Reserve rate decision meeting is on the 19th. A rate cut is basically impossible at this meeting, and instead, we might hear negative news due to inflation caused by war-driven oil price increases.
BTC has also risen quite a bit recently. Once bearish catalysts emerge and the stock market falls, BTC's downside will be even more severe!
Therefore, at the current stage, focus on defense. Avoid overconfidence and reckless gains-chasing. Don't chase rallies or panic sell!
Trading Strategy: Currently hold spot positions, use 73000 as a defense level, and plan to exit in batches above 78000 for swing trading.

【Viewpoint Unchanged: BTC Rebound Continues, Will We See $80,000?】
Brief Market Update:
Overall viewpoint remains unchanged from yesterday.
BTC is currently still in a rebound structure, but resistance above is also very evident.
Key levels to focus on:
Resistance zone: 73,000—74,000
Strong resistance: Around 79,000
Support zone: 68,000—69,000
If volume cannot break through the resistance zone, the market will likely continue consolidating.
Recently there has been a lot of news in the market, with frequent small timeframe wicks, making short-term trading quite challenging. More patience would be better.
Trading suggestion: Consider taking profits in batches and trading (doing T) when BTC rebounds above 78,000

【Bitcoin Ascending Flag Formation Complete, Rebound Target Eyeing 79660?】
Bitcoin has been experiencing frequent intraday pump-and-dump moves due to Middle East tensions. Therefore, we need to adjust to relatively higher timeframes to observe the market more clearly.
From the adjusted 2-day chart perspective, Bitcoin's triangle has broken above the upper boundary and completed a pullback confirmation. The upper support remains valid, and the structure for continued upward movement is still quite clear. Currently, price is near the important 73000 resistance zone experiencing a retracement move.
With multiple resistance levels ahead, any rebound will inevitably involve back-and-forth oscillations, so short-term operations present considerable difficulty.
At this stage of the market, we estimate the pullback will be relatively gentle. After all, the war news hasn't directly crashed Bitcoin, and short-term resilience has shown decent performance. Below, we should focus on the 68000-69000 support zone.
On the upside resistance side, Bitcoin has formed an **ascending flag structure**. The upper edge of the flag serves as the resistance level, approximately around 74900, and overlaps with the 73000-74000 resistance zone. Therefore, the pressure here is extremely significant.
Unless there's a volume breakout, it will be difficult for Bitcoin to directly surge past this level in the short term. Therefore, this can still serve as a **first profit-taking position** for reference.
If the market truly breaks through this resistance zone, the upside target can continue to reference the **CME gap fill at approximately 79660**.
One final reminder:
**Ascending flags often exist only to be broken.**
Rebounds are rebounds, but once the structure is broken in the follow-up, Bitcoin's overall downtrend has not ended. The true major-level low point may very well not have appeared yet—everyone must keep this in mind.

【Bullish Defense Holds, Is a Major Rebound Coming?】
Based on yesterday's analysis, after Bitcoin broke below 67,000, it started testing support downward. Currently, the price is still operating near this critical 67,000 level. This position itself is an important defensive line along the upper edge of the triangle structure. Therefore, the upcoming trend can actually be understood from two perspectives.
First scenario: The rebound structure gradually strengthens.
If the market rebounds next and the rebound height continues to rise, and the bears' two attempts to suppress the price fail to produce new lows, it indicates that in the current battle between bulls and bears, the bulls are gradually gaining the upper hand.
In other words, the bulls are holding their ground in this area. Once market confidence gradually recovers, there could be a genuine rebound trend.
Second scenario: The current rebound is merely a symbolic technical correction.
If the rebound strength is noticeably weak and the rebound space is limited, then caution is needed, as this downward structure may not have truly ended.
In this case, the market is likely to continue downward after a brief correction, potentially testing lower levels.
But even so, it's not entirely a bad thing. Because if the market continues to decline, it may create new significant buying opportunities at lower levels.
Overall, the market is still in a key structural decision phase.
Short-term bulls and bears are still oscillating around 67,000.
Trading idea: Currently, the position is suitable for holding and enduring. Even if it drops further, it's a big opportunity.

【BTC67000 Defense Line Temporarily Holds, Bulls and Bears Enter Critical Battle Zone】
Previously, it was mentioned that after Bitcoin reaches the 74,000 resistance level, it needs to pull back to find support, and the strategy should lean towards defense. Subsequently, the market also moved as expected, briefly breaking below 70,000, indicating short-term market weakness.
However, from the current chart, Bitcoin ultimately closed above 67,000, holding the previously mentioned triangle upper support zone, indicating that the bulls are still defending this position.
Current Key Levels:
Support: 67,000, 64,000 (Bull/Bear Critical Line)
Resistance: 70,000, 74,000
If 67,000 can continue to hold, Bitcoin still has the chance to challenge the 70,000-74,000 range again;
But if the daily chart falls back inside the triangle, the market is likely to test 64,000, or even look for support at 58,000-59,000.
Overall, the market is still in the phase of choosing direction, with more frequent fluctuations.
In terms of strategy: Since you're already trapped, hold your current position. The short to medium term has already seen significant drops, and holding through the dip might be the way to go. Perhaps the dawn is just ahead. Bitcoin is still expected to rally towards around 78,000 USD, so consider exiting or doing T for profit-taking.

[70,000 Lost! BTC Bulls Retreat to the 67,000 Defense Line]
Previously, it was analyzed that after Bitcoin hits the 74,000 resistance, the strategy should shift towards defense. The rebound expectation is limited, and it’s more reasonable to pull back and look for support. The market also aligns with our view, even breaking below the short-term moving average support at 70,000, showing clear weakness!
We will continue to observe from the perspective of the triangle structure. Currently, Bitcoin is testing the upper boundary support of the triangle, around 67,000. This remains an important line of defense for the bulls.
If the daily closing price falls back inside the triangle, the last line of defense can only rely on the support at the lower boundary, around 64,000, which is essentially the bulls’ critical survival line.
If this level is effectively broken, the probability of making a new low will greatly increase. We will then look for rebound opportunities around 58,000-59,000!

【CME Gap 79660-81210, the ultimate target of this rebound?】
Bitcoin has been highly volatile in the past two days due to news about the Middle East conflict, with the market fluctuating sharply and experiencing several false breakout and false breakdown signals. Short-term trading is quite challenging, but from a long-term perspective, the trend remains clear. We are still following the previously projected script, successfully breaking through and reaching the first resistance level around 74,000, with accurate prediction.
As the market reaches this level, it’s important to focus on defense. First, we clarify that this is only a rebound. Due to heavy resistance above and constraints from industry cycles and liquidity, the rebound expectations are also limited.
At least around 74,000, there should be some consolidation and resistance. Emotional funds might push the price briefly to 75,000, but a pullback is more reasonable in the end, with support near 70,000.
With valid support, there’s a possibility of further upward movement. If broken, the market will likely enter a correction and consolidation phase.
Optimistically, the rebound’s endpoint continues to reference the CME gap 79660-81210. This gap is difficult to fill in one go, and overcoming it will be very challenging. If the price can reach this level, it’s a good opportunity for swing trading!

[Is the true bottom of BTC not here yet? First 80K, then 50K, and finally aiming for 100K — the complete script]
Last night during the live stream, I already outlined the main direction. Here’s a brief summary (the referenced article contains more detailed logic):
The current core idea is:
First, watch BTC rebound to the 75,000–80,000 USD range. During this phase, focus on reducing positions and taking profits; then, there’s a high probability of a retest, dropping to the 54,000–60,000 USD range to find the real stage bottom. Once the second bottom is confirmed, the market will be more likely to enter a large-scale rally, with the target potentially exceeding 100,000 USD.
Therefore, the key to trading is not “holding tightly” or “blindly bottom-fishing,” but:
When there’s room for a rebound, reduce positions to lock in profits; during dips, buy back in low, using volatility to lower the average cost, so profits can be amplified.
In simple terms: survive the wave swings first, then wait for the main upward wave to take profits.

[Where is the bottom: 57,000 or 54,000? Multiple support levels are about to see a major rebound]
After the four-hour divergence appeared, Bitcoin has not been able to organize an effective rebound, instead moving sideways with a horizontal trend. This is the most frustrating situation—no rise when it should, and after exhausting rebound momentum, it can only continue downward to seek support!
Currently, after Bitcoin briefly dipped below the previous small low, a minor divergence appeared. Therefore, the small support at 62,500 can serve as a clear defensive position (stop-loss below 61,600). The market will rely on this level for a rebound. Pay close attention to the 8 o'clock daily close; if it can recover above 65,000, the rebound will continue. The first resistance level is around 70,000.
If not, then after weak consolidation, a new low is highly probable! At that point, we need to observe whether a quick dip to a new low results in a secondary daily divergence, which could be a trading opportunity. If it’s a decline with bearish momentum, then we will need to wait further.
In terms of levels, the 57,000-58,000 range and around 54,000 are potential support zones, especially 54,000. This level is where multiple supports converge: the Fibonacci 0.236 level of the 25-year bullish candle body, the 7-day moving average, and the lower boundary of the upward channel since the last bear market low of 15,476. A major rebound is expected here, making it a key area to watch!
