Bitcoin failed another push higher and got turned away at the same ceiling it has hit for weeks — neutral for now, but the bigger trend still looks bullish.

• Bitcoin pumped and then dropped straight back after hitting resistance in the mid-to-high $80,000s.
• The Nasdaq 100 just closed at a record high, which usually pulls crypto up with it.
• With US markets shut for the weekend, Bitcoin is likely to drift sideways rather than crash or break out.
• Ethereum, XRP, Solana and Chainlink are all stuck under their own ceilings, with warning signals on the daily charts.
• Two clean rejections from the same level raise the risk of a double top, though it is not confirmed yet.

Outlook: If stocks keep climbing when markets reopen, expect another breakout attempt within one to two weeks; a failure could start a pullback into November.

## Bitcoin Levels

• **Bias:** Neutral short term, bullish on the weekly chart
• **Support:** $80,000–$82,000 (former resistance now support); short-term liquidity at $82,400
• **Resistance:** $86,000–$88,000; liquidity above at $87,300–$87,500
• **Targets:** $96,000–$98,000 on a confirmed hold above $88,000
• **Invalidation:** A break below $82,000, and especially back into the $70,000s, confirms a double top and a multi-week correction
