Bitcoin Faces Volatility After New High, US Demand Signals Bullish Trend

Bitcoin Market Update:

  • Bitcoin experienced a swift correction, dropping below $125,000 after reaching an all-time high of $126,200. The price retraced over 4% to approximately $120,000.
  • This correction resulted in the liquidation of millions in leveraged positions as traders expected further gains.
  • Despite the pullback, on-chain data shows significant accumulation by US investors, particularly through regulated platforms and ETFs.
  • The Coinbase Premium Gap surged, indicating strong demand from US investors. Historically, such increases have preceded major market expansions.
  • Bitcoin is stabilizing around $122,500, with support just above $120,000, which previously acted as resistance.
  • The 8-day and 21-day moving averages are trending upward, suggesting continued bullish momentum.
  • If Bitcoin holds above the $120,000–$121,000 range, it may attract renewed buying pressure to potentially break above $125,000.
  • A failure to maintain current levels could lead to a retest of the $117,500 area, still within a healthy correction range.

The overall trend remains bullish, supported by institutional demand and strong inflows into Coinbase. A decisive move above $125,000 could initiate a new phase of price discovery.
