At the start of the week, we identified a key liquidation zone on Bitcoin's heatmap, suggesting that the market might be drawn towards that price level due to the concentration of liquidation levels.

As anticipated, Bitcoin did approach and tap into this area, which led to the expected price movement. However, we need to emphasise that while such moves are likely, they are never guaranteed. This highlights the importance of using tools like liquidation heatmaps to forecast potential price movements but also underscores the necessity of a cautious and adaptive approach.

From our analysis, the next step for Bitcoin appears to be a gradual downward grind.

We have identified support zones around $56,500 and $50,906 as potential buy boxes, suggesting these levels could provide good entry points if the market continues its downward trajectory. The channel trendlines we've drawn indicate that Bitcoin could potentially revisit its April-March 2022 lows.

However, if Bitcoin can reclaim the $60,000 level and sustain trading above it for several weeks, our bearish outlook may need to be reassessed. For now, we recommend a patient approach, waiting for either a confirmed breakdown or a sustained recovery above key resistance levels before making significant moves.
