Bitcoin: Correction Could Deepen Before the Uptrend Resumes

Listen to the news

Bitcoin is slowing down after completing an extended wave (3), suggesting that a higher-degree wave (4) correction may be underway. While initial support remains around $80K, a potential leading diagonal in wave A could open the door to a deeper ABC correction toward the $78K–$74K support zone, aligning with the 38.2%–50% Fibonacci retracement. After the current wave B recovery, watch for another decline within wave C before a potential bullish resumption in wave (5). Bulls may regain control above $86K, while a break below $74K would raise the possibility that wave (5) has already completed.
