On Jan. 30, Bitcoin stayed under pressure after slipping below $84,000, with sellers testing the $80,600 area and eyed support near $74,508. Several large-cap altcoins also breached key levels, raising downside risks across the market. Some analysts foresee further weakness, while others note potential bottoming patterns if buyers defend supports.

On Jan. 28, Bitcoin traded above $90,000 and met resistance near $90,500 as traders positioned around the FOMC. Several leading altcoins are attempting rebounds but may encounter selling near moving averages and overhead levels. February has historically favored BTC, with only three negative months since 2013 and a median 12.21% rise.

On Jan. 21, Bitcoin hovered around $88,000 support while several large-cap altcoins struggled against overhead moving averages. Peter Brandt said on X that BTC might revisit $58,000–$62,000, and Fundstrat's Tom Lee warned of a potentially painful 2026 even as he expects a strong year-end with a possible new all-time high. Buyers must defend critical floors or the nascent rebound could fade.

On Jan. 16, Bitcoin stalled just under $98,000 and pulled back toward the $94,500 support area while broader crypto markets lost upside momentum. Technical setups indicate that buyers may step in on dips across BTC and leading altcoins such as ETH, XRP, BNB, SOL, DOGE, ADA, XMR, BCH and LINK to defend crucial moving averages and chart levels.

On Jan. 9, buyers sought to hold Bitcoin above $90,000 as bears pressed near $94,789. Multiple large-cap altcoins tested moving averages or key patterns, with potential targets including $100,000 for BTC, $3,659–$4,000 for ETH, and $2.70 for XRP, while downside levels span $84,000–$76,000.

On Monday, Bitcoin was rejected near $94,789, and on Tuesday spot BTC ETFs posted $243.2 million of outflows following $1.16 billion of inflows in the year’s first two trading sessions, according to Farside Investors. Santiment said whales and sharks have added 56,227 BTC since mid-December, while several large-cap tokens are expected to test support at nearby moving averages.

Bitcoin opened 2025 near $93,000, dropped to $74,500 in April, and later rallied to $126,199 in October, setting the stage for a pivotal 2026. Key thresholds include the 20‑month EMA at $88,049 and support at $74,508; a breakdown could point to $50,000, while strength above $100,000 puts $126,199 back in view.

Bitcoin is consolidating between $86,400 and $90,600, with chart projections pointing to a potential move toward $94,589, $100,000 and even $107,500 if resistance breaks. Several major altcoins, including Ether, BNB, XRP, Solana, Dogecoin, Cardano, Bitcoin Cash, Chainlink and Zcash, are testing important moving averages and support zones that could either launch relief rallies or extend the broader downtrend.

On Dec. 24, Bitcoin slipped back below $87,000 as several large-cap tokens rolled over from resistance.
