Analyst Predicts Bitcoin Price Reaching $70K Amid Bearish Trends

The Bitcoin price is expected to close the year negatively, marking one of its poorest Q4 outcomes recently. However, 2026 may bring relief as a deeper correction is anticipated.

Potential BTC Price Movement in 2026 Q1

  • Quant trader CryptoOnchain suggests Bitcoin's price outlook leans bearish due to ongoing selling pressure.
  • Bitcoin currently hovers around a key Point of Control (POC) level, crucial for support or resistance.
  • If unable to recover previous highs, Bitcoin might drop below its POC towards $70,000 - $73,000, the last cycle’s peak and a critical “support flip” zone.
  • The diverging Relative Strength Index (RSI) supports a potential fall to this support range.
  • Holding the $70,000 - $73,000 range is vital to prevent further decline and maintain long-term bullish trends.
