Bitcoin’s price is still in range rather than in a full risk‑off spill after a post‑expiry sell‑off, a string of red monthly closes, and geopolitical tensions. Bitcoin Remains Rangebound March 30th QCP Market Colour reports that Bitcoin briefly slipped to around $65k during thin Asian trading (low‑liquidity window where smaller orders can push price around disproportionately). It then snapped back into its usual weekend band between $66k and $67k. Throughout the month, this has been a recurring pattern: price softens into the weekend as traders cut risk, then grinds higher again as the new week begins. Bitcoin will likely stay stuck in its current range as Trump’s 10‑day halt on strikes against Iranian energy assets runs toward its April 6 expiry, a point at which traders are bracing for a possible flare‑up. Related Reading: Google Says End For Bitcoin Is Near? Quantum Computers Could Attack Crypto This Soon In options, post‑expiry volatility compression is “muted”; traders are still paying for gamma, overwriters are sidelined, and the vol surface signals caution but not panic. Positioning is defensive rather than euphoric, which fits a market that is stable but not ready to break higher. Everything points at Bitcoin being headed for a sixth straight negative monthly close and its first three‑month losing stretch to kick off the year, highlighting how fragile sentiment remains. Geopolitical Tensions Heighten According to QCP, “Washington is signalling escalation risk”. The U.S. insists talks are moving forward, but the continued troop buildup indicates it is still preparing for potential ground operations. Meanwhile, Iran’s partners in Yemen keep warning they could disrupt key supply routes if the conflict worsens. Any blockade in the Bab al‑Mandeb strait could dramatically worsen the existing inflation shock, a scenario the administration can hardly stomach with approval ratings sagging and midterms on the horizon. Macro and geopolitics are tightly intertwined. Elevated oil, war risk premium and supply‑chain vulnerabilities keep the famous stagflation narrative alive, which continues to muddy Bitcoin’s role between high‑beta risk asset and emerging macro hedge. As long as Trump’s strike pause holds and there is no major policy surprise, BTC likely stays range‑bound and headline‑driven into early April. “The Majority Of Market Participants Are Operating At A Loss” On-chain, all this tension translates to Long‑Term Holder SOPR (profitability) recently slipping below 1.0, new data from Crypto Dan for Crypto Quant shows. Veteran holders are now selling at a loss: classic “surrender” or early capitulation behavior. Since long‑term holders are usually the least reactive to short‑term price swings, a period where they start locking in losses often signals that the entire market has entered a capitulation phase. Bitcoin: Long Term Holder SOPR. Source: Crypto Quant. According to Crypto Dan, these kinds of conditions have often preceded phases where selling pressure slowly runs out, paving the way for market bottoms or areas that sit near long‑term lows. The analyst believes that it may be too early to call this the definitive bottom, but a stage where losses are broadly shared typically marks the last leg of fear and the first real window of opportunity for patient buyers.

Dogecoin’s H4 chart has delivered an interesting bearish signal. According to a technical analysis published by popular Dogecoin analyst Trader Tardigrade on X, DOGE has just executed a clean rejection from the Kumo, the cloud resistance zone of the Ichimoku technical indicator. That failure is now shaping the next phase of Dogecoin’s price action. The Kumo Held Firm: What The Rejection Signals The technical chart shows that the Dogecoin price, which has been trading below the Ichimoku cloud, rallied into the lower boundary of the indicator, only to stall and reverse at a strong resistance zone. Related Reading: Pundit Reveals What Would Need To Happen For Dogecoin Price To Hit $10 The rejection occurred as the Dogecoin price attempted to push into the cloud from below on the H4 timeframe into a zone Trader Tardigrade identified as strong resistance in the $0.09512 to $0.09564 range. Price tested the underside of the cloud and was denied, and this led to a downward reversal. The analyst noted that when the cloud holds in this manner, the market typically respects it, adding that the episode was Ichimoku analysis at its finest. The rejection confirms that sellers are still defending the $0.09512 to $0.09564 range very hard. For context, trading below the Kumo places the Dogecoin price in a bearish Ichimoku structure. The rejection served to confirm resistance, while also reaffirming the broader technical regime. Price Levels To Watch Trader Tardigrade’s H4 Ichimoku chart identified two important price levels that will determine whether Dogecoin’s rally will extend further. Related Reading: Legendary Dogecoin Breakout That Could Lead To 2,500% Rally To $2 The first is the Kumo zone, spanning between $0.09512 and $0.09564, which the analyst designates as strong resistance. This is the range that capped the most recent rally and produced the clean rejection. The bearish structure on the H4 chart will stay intact as long as the price is trading below this band. Any push back into this zone should be monitored carefully for another potential rejection. Just below that lies the Kijun-sen at $0.09354, which is labelled as the medium-strength resistance level. This baseline sits just beneath the cloud and is the first meaningful resistance that Dogecoin bulls must clear before any recovery attempt can be taken seriously. A failure to break above $0.09354 on a retest would lead to further downside pressure. At the time of writing, Dogecoin is trading at $0.09087, down by 2.6% in the past 24 hours, meaning it has extended its losses since it encountered a clean Kumo rejection. On the downside, the short-term outlook is for continuation below current price levels following the rejection, with the Ichimoku cloud offering no support levels, given that price is already trading under it.
