Technical Analysis

Analyst Ali Martinez noted that over the past decade Bitcoin has typically formed cycle lows when trading between the 1.0 and 0.8 MVRV pricing bands, which are now near $54,000 and $43,000. In the current cycle BTC has not dropped below the 1.0 band and has also stayed under the 2.4 and 3.2 bands, while trading around $73,000 with a weekly gain of more than 6%.

Bitcoin has pushed above $70,000 and briefly reclaimed $73,000, but price action is now testing a dense resistance band between $71,800 and $73,000 that has repeatedly halted rallies. Technical analysts warn that failure to close above $73,500 and ultimately $74,500 could validate a large Head and Shoulders reversal pattern with downside projections toward the $50,000 area, even as ETF inflows and mixed macro sentiment pull the market in opposing directions.

Bitcoin climbed past the $70,000 resistance and recorded a monthly high at $74,000, extending an $11,000 rebound from a recent Saturday low linked to tensions involving the US, Israel, and Iran. Analysts highlight renewed spot ETF inflows, post-holiday activity in China, and strong whale buying as drivers, and now focus on light supply between $72,000 and $81,000 with major resistance projected around $83,307 and $84,569.

On March 4, Bitcoin rallied strongly, hitting an intraday high of $73,952.99 while trading closely in line with U.S. SaaS tech stocks. Arthur Hayes cautioned that Bitcoin has not yet broken its correlation with software equities and suggested the move could be a dead cat bounce. At the same time, Peter Brandt viewed the breakout from a symmetrical triangle pattern and push toward $73,000 as a potentially important shift in the asset's price behavior.

Solana has extended its recovery after securing support above the $85 and $88 areas and is now trading over $90 and the 100-hour simple moving average. The SOL/USD pair is encountering resistance around $92 and $95, while a decisive close above $100 could open the door toward higher targets. If the $92 barrier caps gains, support is seen near $90, $88.50 and then $84, with further weakness potentially exposing the $78 zone.

Market analyst EGRAG CRYPTO stated on March 4 that XRP remains locked in a long-term descending channel and needs a weekly close above $2.20 to invalidate its bearish structure. They added that a weekly close above $1.55 would signal short‑term strength, while failure to reclaim this level could send the price toward $1.26 or even the $0.95–$0.85 support zone. XRP recently bounced from around $1.27, but it still trades well below its July 2025 all‑time high of $3.65.

Dogecoin (DOGE) surged nearly 15% in the last 24 hours, hitting a multi-month high of $0.102. This rally follows a volatile February and is primarily driven by Bitcoin’s recovery above $73,000 and a renewed "risk-on" appetite across the meme coin sector. As institutional interest returns via spot ETFs and retail volume spikes, traders are now eyeing a potential breakout toward the $0.12 resistance level.
