Market overview

WHAT HAPPENED? 

Last week, as expected, we broke through the sloping line and started a downward movement. Only the strong volume zone of $66,000-$65,100 (volume reaction), which we noted, could stop it. After receiving a reaction from the buyer, bitcoin was trading sideways for the rest of the week. 
 
 WHAT WILL HAPPEN: OR NOT? 

At the moment, we’re above the formed zone of maximum volumes of $67,500-$66,800. There is a high probability of testing the levels formed above.

The cumulative delta is also on the side of the "bulls", the same pattern of absorption of market sells by limit orders is noticed. We consider changing the scenario to a downward one only with a true breakdown of the local minimum of $65,250.

 Buy zones:  $67,500-$66,800 (maximum volume of the sideways range), $63,100-$62,500 (mirrored volume zone), $60,000-$59,000 (buyer activity), $55,000-$53,800 (volume zone), $57,000-$56,400 (volume zone).

 Sell zones:  $70,000 level (seller market activity), $72,000 level (seller market activity).
