Bitcoin ( BTC ) tapped 3-day lows into the April 20 weekly close as analysis warned of a fresh liquidity grab next. BTC/USD 1-hour chart. Source: Cointelegraph/TradingView Analysis sees Bitcoin crossing $83,000 Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD dropping 1.5% to $83,974 on the day before rebounding. Still broadly less volatile over the weekend, Bitcoin sought to stem the week’s downside as doubts appeared over the strength of nearby support. Investigating the current liquidity setup across exchange order books, popular analyst Mark Cullen was particularly skeptical of $83,000. “Bitcoin 90k liquidity still calling. BUT, i think the 83k level isn't safe, those lows from last Sunday and Wednesday are likely to get run first,” he summarized on X. “THEN we wait for the reaction and bullish structure to build back inside the range low.” Bitcoin order book liquidity chart.

With it al ready sweeping the highs of the range late last week, IMO we are going to see liquidity sought from the lows before continuation higher. #Crypto #BTC https://t.co/iNllx4LexJ pic.twitter.com/6zx5gXZx79 — AlphaBTC (@mark_cullen) April 20, 2025 “Pretty slow market during this long weekend as expected. I think next week will get interesting as the charts are quite compressed. Any decent good/bad headline could spark a pretty large move I think. Even if its just from positions getting squeezed,” popular trader Daan Crypto Trades continued . “Generally those moves are not one you want to be fading when it occurs. $83K-$86K is the range to watch in the short term.” BTC/USDT 15-minute chart with CME futures data.

Fellow trader Roman meanwhile eyed what could become a return to multimonth lows as part of a bullish inverse head and shoulders reversal pattern. “If volume is decreasing on the way to 76k, I’ll take longs,” he told X followers.
