The daily chart
The price has been oscillating within a descending channel on the daily chart for the past two months. The channel briefly broke to the downside a few days ago.
However, BTC quickly recovered and moved back up inside the channel, making a false bearish breakout. With the $60,000 level also becoming support, the price is likely to target the $68,000 resistance level in the near term.

Looking at the 4-hour chart, it is clear that the price has quickly recovered from below the channel and the $60,000 level. The middle line of the descending channel is now the next target.
Meanwhile, with the RSI approaching the overbought zone, the price could experience a pullback soon. The continuation of the uptrend depends on whether the price can finally break the channel to the upside.

Bitcoin Miners Position Index
While the price of Bitcoin has traded below the $75,000 level, many market participants have been offloading their coins as they assume that the bull market may be over or that a much deeper pullback is likely. However, miners are not part of this group.
This chart shows the Miner Position Index (MPI) metric. It measures the selling pressure of miners. Values above 2 can be considered dangerous as they show massive destruction by miners.

As the chart shows, the CPI has been falling rapidly over the past few months. This is a good sign as the selling pressure from miners is easing. Thus, with sufficient demand, the price of Bitcoin may once again begin a rally towards $80,000 and even higher prices.
