Key Takeaways
Bitcoin is in a Wave 4 corrective phase, per Elliott Wave Theory.
A-B-C structure suggests a potential drop to $86,000 before the next move.
RSI indicates neutral momentum, with breakout signals awaited.
Bitcoin is navigating its Wave 4 corrective phase, forming a distinct A-B-C structure as it consolidates near key Fibonacci levels.
With the all-time high of $108,336 marking the peak of Wave 3, the current phase suggests more downside potential before a new upward impulse in Wave 5.
Analysts are eyeing a breakout above the descending trendline, which would confirm the start of the next bullish phase.
Bitcoin’s 4-hour chart highlights a textbook Elliott Wave pattern, with Wave 4 nearing completion.
Bitcoin is trading near the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement level at $93,736, with potential support levels identified deeper at $86,000 (0.382 retracement).
The descending channel, characteristic of Wave 4, suggests that a breakout—likely to the upside—will confirm the initiation of Wave 5.

Momentum indicators, including the Relative Strength Index (RSI), currently signal neutrality, reflecting indecision in the market.
If Wave C of the corrective phase matches Wave A’s magnitude, Bitcoin could see further declines toward $84,172, though analysts anticipate support holding above $86,000 in a bullish scenario.
BTC Price Prediction
Zooming into the hourly chart, Bitcoin remains within a descending channel that aligns with its corrective structure.
The price has tested the 0.236 Fibonacci level multiple times, but a drop to $86,000 would align with Wave 4’s typical patterns.
A bullish breakout above $93,756 would target $99,982, a key trendline projection signaling the start of Wave 5

In the bearish case, failure to hold $92,077 (0.5 Fibonacci extension) could lead to deeper corrections, with potential bottoms at $87,556 or even $84,172.
Conversely, a confirmed breakout from the descending channel would pave the way for new highs in the $125,000 range during Wave 5.
Deeper support: $90,212 (0.618 Fibonacci extension level) and $87,556
Critical support: $86,129 (0.382 retracement of the larger structure) and $84,172 (Wave C potential bottom).
Immediate resistance: $93,756 (0.268 Fibonacci retracement level of the correction).
Breakout target: $99,982 (trendline projection for a bullish breakout).
Invalidation: Below $92,077, with further bearish targets at $86,129 or lower.
