Bitcoin (BTC) has shown signs of a relief rally this week, offering a glimmer of hope to investors after the recent market downturn. <\/strong><\/p>\n Despite this brief uptick, analysts are warning that the upward momentum may not last long.<\/p>\n According to data from BeInCrypto, Bitcoin\u2019s price has recovered by 2.0% over the past week<\/a>. The gains have more than doubled over the fortnight, with the coin appreciating by 5.0%. At the time of writing, the largest cryptocurrency traded at $87,381, representing a slight 0.1% dip over the past day.<\/p>\n Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have also seen inflows for nine consecutive days<\/a>, according to data<\/a> from SoSo Value. Since last Friday, the ETFs have collectively attracted<\/a> $944 million in inflows. <\/p>\n This sustained interest suggests growing confidence among institutional investors. Yet, analysts are unconvinced of the rally\u2019s potential.<\/p>\n In its latest Cryptocurrency Compass newsletter, research firm Fairlead Strategies predicted that Bitcoin\u2019s relief rally could persist for another one to two weeks. However, founder Katie Stockton warned that a price drop may follow.<\/p>\n \u201cIntermediate-term momentum is to downside, and the weekly stochastics are not yet oversold, increasing risk that the rebound is fleeting. We expect the same for most risk assets,\u201d she wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Despite the bearish outlook, Stockton acknowledged short-term positives. Bitcoin\u2019s near-term momentum has improved, and the price still has room to rise before hitting overbought territory. Nonetheless, she cautioned that this window may close by month\u2019s end.\u00a0<\/p>\n This could potentially trigger a phase of consolidation\u2014or \u201cdigestion.\u201d This means that Bitcoin\u2019s upward momentum might slow down or pause for a longer period as the market adjusts and absorbs the recent gains.<\/p>\n Another analyst also shared a cautious outlook<\/a>. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Koroush AK estimated Bitcoin\u2019s potential price movements using a liquidation heatmap.<\/p>\n He noted that there\u2019s significant selling pressure around $89,000 (major supply) and buying interest around $85,000 (demand).<\/p>\n \u201cThe idea of a HTF dead cat bounce is still valid if price reverts at the highs around the \u2248$90K key zone,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n For context, a \u201cdead cat bounce\u201d refers to a temporary recovery or brief upward movement in the price of an asset after a prolonged downtrend. This is followed by a continuation of the downtrend. However, he added that the bearish scenario would be nullified if Bitcoin manages to break past the resistance level.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, changing macroeconomic conditions are also a growing concern<\/a>, particularly with US President Donald Trump\u2019s tariff announcements<\/a> scheduled for April 2. In their recent report, K33 Research stressed that although markets are currently stable, the upcoming tariff decisions could trigger considerable volatility<\/a> in the market.<\/p>\n \u201cTariffs remain the primary producer of market-moving headlines, rendering most traders risk-averse as we approach a big day of tariff announcements on April 2,\u201d the report<\/a> read.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The report further advised caution and recommended avoiding leverage due to the anticipated tariff-induced volatility.<\/p>\n Recently, BeInCrypto also explored how<\/a> Trump\u2019s tariff plans might impact crypto markets. High tariffs could pressure risk assets like Bitcoin, potentially mirroring the market\u2019s reaction in February.<\/a> Conversely, if tariffs are delayed or applied selectively, investor fears may ease. This, in turn, could lead to a potential recovery in crypto prices.\u00a0<\/p>\n Disclaimer<\/p>\n In adherence to the Trust Project<\/a> guidelines, BeInCrypto is committed to unbiased, transparent reporting.
