Bitcoin (BTC) traders said that BTC holding above the $60,000 psychological support over the weekend was important as it recovered 6.5% from a local low near $59,100 to an intraday high of around $62,950 on Sunday.Key takeaways:BTC is eyeing a rally toward $92,630 if it continues to hold above a key moving-average support.Nasdaq technicals hint at a potential decline of over 10% in the short term. BTC may rise above $90,000 if Nasdaq underperforms Bitcoin’s rebound stood out as the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (IXIC) plunged more than 4% on Friday, its steepest one-day drop since April 2025.

In a Sunday post, the analyst highlighted Bitcoin holding strong above its 200-week simple moving average (200-week SMA, the blue line) at around $61,880. This level has helped form the bottom in 2020, 2018, and 2015.BTC/USD weekly chart.

The same setup is appearing again, reiterating a potential rebound in BTC prices in the coming weeks.

Bitcoin (BTC) is now flashing its most oversold signal since the COVID-19 crash, raising the odds of a relief rebound toward $70,000 in the coming weeks.Key takeaways:Bitcoin’s daily RSI has dropped to around 15.5, its most oversold reading since the March 2020 COVID crash.Similar oversold RSI readings in 2020 and February 2026 preceded sharp relief rebounds of about 50% and 30%, respectively.BTC refuses to go under $60,000 amid extreme oversold conditionsAs of Saturday, Bitcoin’s daily relative strength index (RSI) stood near 15.5, well below the 30 level that typically marks oversold conditions and its lowest reading since the March 2020 market crash.BTC/USD daily chart. Source: TradingViewThe extremely oversold reading followed a roughly 30% decline in BTC over the past month, as geopolitical risks, higher oil prices, fading hopes for a 2026 Federal Reserve rate cut, and panic over Strategy’s latest Bitcoin sale weighed on sentiment.Oversold readings this extreme often appear near seller-exhaustion zones where short-term buyers begin positioning for a relief rebound.In 2020, Bitcoin’s RSI dropped to around 15.56 before BTC rebounded by about 50%, helped by the Federal Reserve’s emergency shift to near-zero interest rates and large-scale bond purchases.BTC/USD daily chart. Source: TradingViewHowever, Bitcoin has also staged sharp rebounds from deeply oversold RSI levels without major macro catalysts. In February 2026, for instance, BTC’s daily RSI dropped to around 15.86 while price held above the $60,000 support area. The signal preceded a nearly 30% recovery toward $82,850.BTC/USD daily chart. Source: TradingViewBitcoin bulls are again defending $60,000, with bears failing to secure a decisive breakdown despite high-volume selling. Holding above this level increases the odds of an oversold bounce in the coming weeks toward the 20-day exponential moving average (20-day EMA, the green line) at around $70,650.Conversely, a decisive break below $60,000 would weaken the rebound setup and open the door to a deeper drop toward the mid-$50,000s, where Bitcoin may look for an oversold bounce.Bitcoin bottom is close: AnalystBitcoin short-term holders are realizing their largest losses on record, according to Checkonchain data cited by crypto analyst Scott Melker.The short-term holder realized profit/loss ratio has dropped to a new all-time low, falling below levels seen in previous Bitcoin drawdowns.Bitcoin short-term holder realized profit/loss ratio vs. price. Source: CheckonchainThe metric tracks whether recent buyers are selling at a profit or loss. A deeply negative reading means newer holders are exiting below their cost basis, signaling panic selling.Melker also noted that roughly 5.3 million BTC held by long-term holders is now underwater, above the post-FTX peak and the highest level since the March 2020 COVID crash.Related: Chance of new Bitcoin lows ‘extremely slim’ as long-term holders’ supply tops 15M BTCSimilar stress has appeared near past capitulation zones. Bitcoin bottomed near $15,500 after FTX before rallying roughly 690% to around $126,000 in 2025. After the COVID crash, BTC rose about 1,700% from $3,800 to nearly $69,000.”Sentiment has tracked price almost perfectly,” Melker said, adding: “Traders were euphoric at the May peak, then hit peak despair on June 3. That’s usually when the bottom is close. Usually.”

This week is BTC’s second attempt this year to hold above the pink line, as it treads around $62,000.Bitcoin bear flag warns of deeper correction toward $50,000A maturing bear flag on Bitcoin’s chart suggests the correction may extend well below the $55,000 area.As of Friday, BTC had broken below the flag’s lower trend line, with rising trading volume showing stronger conviction behind the move. In technical analysis, a bear flag forms when the price consolidates higher inside a narrow channel after a sharp decline, before resuming the prior downtrend.The measured target is calculated by subtracting the height of the preceding decline from the breakdown point. In Bitcoin’s case, that projects a downside target near the $50,000–$51,000 support zone.That area also aligns with previous horizontal support, making it the next major level to watch if BTC fails to reclaim the flag’s lower trend line over the next few days.Bitcoin onchain data points to $50,000–$54,000 targetBitcoin’s onchain data points to a similar target as the bear flag setup.Glassnode’s MVRV pricing bands show BTC’s realized price (purple) near $53,740.

The setup follows BTC’s failure to reclaim the flag’s upper trend line, with rising volumes adding weight to the downside move.BTC/USD weekly chart. Source: TradingViewHowever, the bearish scenario is not confirmed as long as BTC trades above its 200-week simple moving average (200-week SMA, blue line) at around $61,800. This level has acted as a major cycle-bottom zone in past Bitcoin bear markets, including 2015, 2018 and 2020.A strong rebound from the 200-week SMA would weaken, or potentially invalidate, the bear flag breakdown, putting BTC price in position to test $70,000 as the next upside target.
