Short-term momentum has weakened BTC is now slightly below the Bollinger middle band . That is a change from your previous chart, where BTC was above the middle band. So short-term momentum has shifted from: Bullish → Neutral/Bearish But price is still above the lower Bollinger Band. Therefore, this is not yet a confirmed major breakdown .
Why did BTC fall from $87K? This move is not happening in isolation. BTC reached around $87.3K before pulling back. Recent market reporting links the pullback to rising U.S. Treasury yields, increased expectations for another Fed rate hike, and renewed oil/geopolitical concerns. This is important because your chart is showing exactly what we would expect from a macro-driven correction: $87K rejection ↓ risk-off pressure ↓ BTC falls toward $84K
BTC/USD 1H — Current Technical Analysis Current price: ~ $86,234
Bullish scenario If BTC does: $86.2K → $86.5K → $87K breakout → $87K retest and hold then the next technical reference areas are approximately: $88K → $89K → $90K These are technical reference zones, not guaranteed targets .
Bearish scenario If BTC starts losing:
$85.5K then the pullback could extend toward: $85K → $84.5K → $84K If BTC also breaks the lower portion of the rising regression structure, then the current bullish 1H structure becomes significantly weaker. So I would not treat a simple move from $86K to $85.5K as a major reversal by itself. The candle closes and structure of the subsequent candles matter more.
