Bitcoin (BTC) pushed higher on Wednesday, extending its recovery rally to levels not seen since late January. The price rose to just under 5% above the $79,000 mark after President Trump announced he would extend a ceasefire with Iran.
Market analysts said attention is moving quickly from the breakout itself to the next set of hurdles higher up the chart. Alex Kuptsikevich, chief market analyst at FxPro, said he believes the $75,000 to $86,000 zone does not appear “saturated” with heavy resistance.
Kuptsikevich added that, in his view, if there are no major negative developments, Bitcoin could maintain upward momentum. He also highlighted $86,000 as a critical point because the 200-day moving average (MA) is expected to sit near that level and aligns with an important pivot area.
Market expert Ali Martinez also commented on the surge, saying Bitcoin is forming a bullish reversal pattern. He noted that BTC is developing a Morning Star candlestick setup on the monthly chart, described as a three-day sequence often interpreted as a sign that sellers may be exhausted and that buyers are regaining control.
Martinez cautioned, however, that strong signals do not always translate into an immediate straight-line rally. He indicated that an 8% pause could come before any “real push.”
Taken together, the next move may depend on whether BTC can hold above established support levels such as $75,000, sustain the push through key thresholds including $80,000, and avoid major negative shocks as geopolitics and risk sentiment remain active variables for markets.
