Bitcoin Rebounds to $85K After Sharp Sell-Off, Analysts Divided on Market Bottom

Bitcoin Rebounds to $85,120 After Sell-Off: Recovery or Temporary Bounce?

  • Bitcoin recovers to $85,120 after a week-long sell-off, with some traders viewing the technical indicators as having reached oversold territory.
  • Market observers are split on whether this is a genuine recovery or merely a temporary bounce before revisiting recent lows.
  • Despite short-term volatility, analysts suggest this drawdown represents a buying opportunity comparable to August 2024 when BTC dipped below $50,000.

Bitcoin Price has rebounded into the $80,000 range, reaching as high as $85,120 intraday after a prolonged sell-off dominated most of the week. This recovery comes as technical indicators reached deeply oversold levels, prompting speculation about whether this signals the end of the downtrend or merely represents a temporary bounce.

Some market participants remain cautious, suggesting that without sustained buying pressure or if negative macroeconomic news resurfaces, Bitcoin could retest its recent lows. However, HighStrike head of options and crypto trading JJ took a more optimistic view, noting that “Coinbase spot bids” were “filled,” representing the “first flip of bids outweighing asks now since the September bottom at $52,000.”

The market sentiment appears to be shifting from extreme fear, with Wintermute trader Jake O said, “For anyone with long-term conviction in the space, the current disconnect between positioning/sentiment vs fundamentals has never looked better. The setup feels similar to August 2024 as spot dipped below $50K on mass liquidations and I do think we’ll see large topside trading over the next few sessions.”

From a technical analysis perspective, chartered market analyst Aksel Kibar described Bitcoin’s sweep of the $78,000 level as a “sharp retest” but refrained from declaring that a price bottom had been reached.

Technical traders should note that Bitcoin’s daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains in deeply oversold territory. Despite today’s substantial rebound, the daily candlestick pattern still shows lower highs and lower lows. Technical analysts suggest that failure to establish a daily close that generates a higher high could indicate the downtrend isn’t yet complete.

This price action occurs against a backdrop where many analysts continue to view the recent drawdown as a prime purchasing opportunity, drawing parallels to previous corrections that preceded significant rallies in the cryptocurrency market.

Every investment and trading move involves risk, and readers should conduct their own research when making a decision.
