The market is currently seen as range-bound, with $2.50 being a point of fair value and $2 serving as a psychological support level. Traders short on the market may consider taking profits, while the possibility of stabilization or buying pressure looms in the near future.

Bitcoin Struggles to Break Above $31K as Crypto Market Remains Volatile

Bitcoin has failed twice to break above the $31,000 level, with futures traders likely responsible for keeping the gains in check. The increase in open interest in stablecoin-margined futures contracts suggests an influx of bearish short positions in the market. The release of a softer-than-expected U.S. consumer price index report further contributed to the retreat from the $31,000 level. This level has now become a key resistance to watch in the short-term. Bitcoin is currently trading at around $30,350.

Bitcoin Cash Futures Traders Suffer Record Losses as Prices Skyrocket to $320

Increased BCH trading volumes on South Korean exchanges and the launch of EDX Markets, backed by traditional finance heavyweights, may have contributed to the price surge. Large liquidations can signal the local top or bottom of a steep price move.
