Bitcoin Consolidation: Tactical Pause Before the Next Big Move?
Bitcoin (BTC/USDC)
Date of Analysis: March 7, 2025
Chart Timeframe: Daily
Title “Trading range with volatility’
Strategic Scenario (6 to 12 months)
Bitcoin remains firmly in its Strategic Bullish Trend, supported by strong demand above the $64,900 Strategic Support level. The long-term outlook indicates a potential breakout above $130,000 and $140,000, contingent upon the resolution of the current tactical consolidation.
Key Observation:
The dominance of Bitcoin has surged to 60.8% of the total crypto market capitalization, marking its highest level since 2021. This confirms Bitcoin’s outperformance relative to the broader crypto market, a trend that remains strongly active and further reinforces long-term bullish sentiment.
Tactical Scenario (1 to 3 months)
After the test of $82,500 last week BTC almost confirmed a risk of deeper consolidation in sideways with an extension to 73,000. Bitcoin’s bullish momentum has paused as the price stabilizes above the $82,500 Tactical Support level, forming a consolidation pattern. The $104,000 Tactical Resistance is a critical level for confirming a continuation of the bullish trend while $82,500 Tactical Support is supporting the market to test $104,000. In case of 82500 penetration the consolidation will end in the long-term DCA area between 73 000 and 64900
Tactical Outlook:
• A breakout above $104000 will confirm the resumption of the uptrend, with a near-term target at $116,000.
• The consolidation within the $82,500–$104,000 range may persist briefly before the directional structure resolves.
IMPORTANT: The Tactical Pause presents an excellent Smart DCA Zone to consolidate long-term Bitcoin positions. The alignment of strategic and tactical levels provides confidence for investors while offering tactical opportunities for traders.
Alternative Scenario
If Bitcoin closes below the $82,500 Tactical Support, a deeper corrective move could materialize, targeting $73,000. However, the Strategic Bullish Trend would remain intact as long as the price holds above the $64,900 Strategic Support.
