  • Geopolitical issues in the Middle East and U.S. trade relationships caused increased volatility.

Bitcoin traded at about $105,100 on June 14, showing a slight decrease of 0.22% over the previous day. Trading remained within a tight range, as the cryptocurrency moved between $104,220 and $106,135. The biggest price movements happened during Asian trading hours, when Bitcoin briefly dropped below $104,200 before quickly regaining ground.

Analysts attribute much of the recent volatility to growing concerns over ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran in the Middle East. Fears that the conflict could expand, along with rising trade tensions between the U.S. and key partners, have added pressure to risk-sensitive assets. In the initial phase of the crisis, more than $1.1 billion in crypto liquidations took place, but Bitcoin soon recovered.

Traders remain cautiously optimistic in the medium term. Despite occasional sharp drops, Bitcoin’s price has continued to form higher lows, showing resilience. Profit-taking just below $106,200 has limited gains, but strong buying interest appears around the $105,000 support level. "Market participants are closely watching the current consolidation, as safe-haven demand and overall risk appetite remain connected," the report noted.

Technical analysis over the past 24 hours identified a $2,090 range of movement. Notably, about 15,342 Bitcoins changed hands during the rebound from the $104,182 low. Minor price exhaustion showed up in the last 15 minutes of the trading session, yet volume data suggests that traders are accumulating on dips.

The article also notes that, while headlines may drive short-term swings, the broader picture points to consolidation rather than a reversal. If support holds near $104,950, Bitcoin could attempt to move above $106,200 again.
