Over the past 24 hours, BTC traded between $91,866 and $83,800, with thin liquidity and a surge in forced liquidations accelerating the move.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bitcoin price key levels: $85,000, $84,000 \u2014 then $75,000?<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin price <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/bitcoin-price\">closed<\/a> the week and month at $90,385, showing a brief green weekly candle, but bears quickly regained control, pushing the price down toward $87,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The close remains below key resistance at $91,400, leaving bulls with an uphill battle. Initial resistance tests at $91,400 and $93,000 failed, with stronger resistance expected between $98,000 and $103,000 if bulls regain momentum, according to Bitcoin Magazine <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/markets\/bitcoins-november-red-candle-signals-bearish-macd-cross-eyes-75000-test\">analysts<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On the support side, $84,000 held this past week, though the bounce was weak. Bulls aim to defend the 0.146 Fibonacci level at $87,000, while failure to hold $84,000 could open a path down to $75,000. Further support lies between $72,000 and $69,000, with a deeper test of $57,700 if selling pressure intensifies.<\/p>\n<p>November\u2019s monthly candle closed strongly bearish, taking out prior green closes from April through June.<\/p>\n<p>Although the bitcoin price remains above the 21-month EMA, the close confirmed a bearish MACD cross, signaling sustained subdued momentum over the next two to three months. This aligns with expectations of a potential top in the four-year cycle.<\/p>\n<p>In the short term, the bitcoin price may trade in a range as bears consolidate, while bulls attempt to reclaim $91,400 and $94,000. Overall, the market faces downward pressure, and caution is warranted for bulls seeking a reversal.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s November candle <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/markets\/bitcoin-plunges-below-96k-support-erasing-2025-gains-amid-extreme-bearish-sentiment\">erased<\/a> three months of prior gains and cemented a bearish monthly momentum shift. Analysts tracking the four-year cycle say the latest data adds weight to the argument that October likely marked the cycle top.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Federal Reserve, Bitcoin price and corporate bitcoin moves<\/h2>\n<p>The Federal Reserve\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/flurry-fed-dissents-coming-meetings-could-pose-market-political-risks-2025-12-01\/\" target=\"_blank\">upcoming<\/a> December 9\u201310 meeting looms large. Markets currently assign an 80%\u201387% probability of a 25-basis-point rate cut \u2014 a move that typically supports risk assets and could potentially lift the bitcoin price.<\/p>\n<p>But if the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/markets\/bitcoin-holds-its-breath-as-fed-cuts-rates\">Fed stands pat<\/a>, analysts warn the crypto market could see another wave of selling, especially with Bitcoin\u2019s November close confirming a bearish MACD cross on the monthly chart \u2014 a historically powerful signal that often precedes multi-month side-ways trading and consolidation or decline.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin-linked equities were also rattled Monday. Strategy Inc. (formerly MicroStrategy) <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/business\/strategy-mstr-creates-cash-reserve\">announced<\/a> it created a $1.4 billion reserve to cover at least 21 months of dividend and interest payments, aiming to quash investor fears it might be forced to sell part of its 650,000 BTC stash.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The company also disclosed a new purchase of 130 BTC for $11.7 million. The move stabilized the stock after an early market sell-off of over 12% at times.
