Bitcoin analysis says $65K 'entry zone' with oil back above $100

Bitcoin continued to surprise some analysts as it held the lower end of its local range despite fresh Iran pressure on macro markets.

Bitcoin (BTC) cooled its modest rebound at Monday’s Wall Street open as oil stayed above $100 per barrel.

Bitcoin preserves a rebound from its lowest levels of March so far.

Data from TradingView showed 2% daily gains holding at the time of writing after a trip to new March lows of $65,000.

Iran tensions continued to fuel market volatility, with US President Donald Trump delivering fresh ultimatums over the Strait of Hormuz blockade while keeping details sparse.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump demanded that Hormuz be “immediately ‘Open for Business’” while threatening renewed attacks on Iranian energy infrastructure. 

Iran in turn suggested that markets discount news delivered prior to the open as a “reverse indicator.”

“We are in the most unusual times in market history,” trading resource The Kobeissi Letter responded in analysis on X.

Oil preserved the $100 mark into Monday, while US stocks struggled to make gains as the week began.

Commenting on BTC price action, trading company QCP Capital maintained the view that despite its losses, BTC/USD was still weathering the macro storm impressively.

“BTC has outperformed both gold and major equities since the Iran conflict began, even as traditional markets have struggled under geopolitical pressure,” it wrote in its latest “Market Color” update.

QCP said it was “notable” that the $65,000-$70,000 range was holding.

Continuing the more positive tone, crypto trader Michaël Van de Poppe called the lower end of Bitcoin’s local range an “entry zone.”

“Great bounce upwards, but nothing confirmed as of yet on Bitcoin. All depends on macroeconomic events; however, I'd rather see a breakout above $71K for confirmation,” he told X followers about the rebound from the March lows.
