BTC price brings back sub-$110,000 levels
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD wicking below $110,000 on Bitstamp.
Exchange order-book liquidity on either side of the price was targeted, with both local lows and resistance at $112,300 now a key focus.
“Time to lock in again, 4th time testing this demand area,” trader Skew wrote about the former in an X post.

Addressing the relative strength index (RSI), Rekt Capital eyed an “emerging” bullish divergence with price — a potential sign of upside to come.
“Price needs to Daily Close just like this to crystallise it,” he added.
Crypto analyst and entrepreneur Ted Pillows used market sentiment as proof that the Bitcoin price was likely establishing a local floor.
“$BTC has been consolidating after last week’s crash,” he told X followers.
“Sentiment is at an all-time low, people are panic selling and ‘it’s all over’ is on the timeline. This doesn’t happen at the top, but rather at the bottom.”
Pillows uploaded a chart comparing current BTC price action to that from the COVID-19 cross-market crash in March 2020.
As Cointelegraph reported, the Crypto Fear and Greed Index has flipped to “fear” this month, matching six-month lows.

Entities holding between 1 BTC and 1,000 BTC, it revealed on the day, were showing “strong accumulation.”
Even whales, who distributed large amounts of BTC to the market in recent weeks, were slowing their sales.
Glassnode said that this was “signaling renewed confidence in spite of the recent shakeout.”
