BTC Wave Map

Wave B-C pullback: after the five-wave climb, (a) and (b) are done and a final (c) leg down toward $79.3K–$80.3K is the likely path before the next move up.

  • Upper resistance $86.6K–$87.2K: the recent highs. Sellers have stepped in here; a close above opens the way higher.
  • Wave (c) target $79.3K–$80.3K: Fibonacci extension targets for the (c) leg (1.419 → $80,315 and 1.618 → $79,342). Where this pullback is most likely to end.
  • Support $66.5K–$69.3K: the 61.8% Fibonacci level, Bitcoin's 200-week average ($66.8K) and the wave-1 top ($66.5K). A deeper dip should find buyers here.

Wave labels and the (c) target are our own read of the daily chart; the dashed (c) path is one possible route, not a forecast. Prices from CoinGecko, updated each morning. Not financial advice.
