Bitcoin<\/span><\/a> has come under renewed pressure after sliding toward the $90,600 region, putting short-term sentiment back on edge. While the move has shaken weak hands, price is now approaching a critical retest zone that could determine whether this dip is merely a shakeout or the start of a deeper correction. How BTC reacts here will likely set the tone for the next directional move.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bitcoin Slides to $90.6K As Selling Pressure Returns<\/h2>\n

According to an <\/span>update<\/span><\/a> by Lennaert Snyder, Bitcoin has extended its downside move, dumping toward the $90,623 level. The latest decline suggests increasing near-term weakness, with expectations that the US market opening could add further pressure and keep<\/span> sentiment<\/span><\/a> cautious.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite the <\/span>volatility<\/span><\/a>, Snyder emphasizes the importance of patience in such conditions, waiting for clear triggers, especially as the market navigates a fragile structure after the recent sell-off. On the bullish side, a potential scalp setup emerges if BTC manages to break the M15 market structure by reclaiming the $91,265 level. Should this occur, the initial upside target is located near the $93,377 resistance, with the monthly high serving as the ultimate objective if momentum continues to build.<\/span><\/p>\n

From a <\/span>bearish<\/span><\/a> perspective, current prices are considered too low to aggressively pursue shorts. Instead, attention shifts to a possible retest of the $93,000 resistance zone, where short positions would only be considered after clear confirmation of rejection.<\/span><\/p>\n

Looking ahead, a clean reclaim of the $93,377 resistance would signal continuation to the upside and reopen the path toward the monthly highs. However, if no bullish reversal materializes in the near term, Bitcoin may remain range-bound and gradually grind lower through the rest of the week.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bitcoin At A Crossroads: Two Scenarios In Play<\/h2>\n

Ardi <\/span>outlined<\/span><\/a> two possible scenarios for Bitcoin\u2019s next major move, both centered around the key $94,000 resistance zone. This level remains the main decision point that will determine whether the <\/span>market<\/span><\/a> resumes its broader upside trend or rolls over into deeper downside.<\/span><\/p>\n

Path A suggests a bullish outcome, where price pushes back into the $94,000 resistance, breaks through with strong acceptance, and continues higher toward the $100,000+ region. In this scenario, the recent downside move would be seen as a shakeout rather than a trend reversal, clearing weak hands before continuation.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, path B points to another potential fakeout into the $94,000 resistance, only to get rejected once again at the top of the range, followed by a <\/span>breakdown<\/span><\/a> below $90,000 and a liquidity sweep toward the $88,000 area before the next meaningful move develops.<\/span><\/p>\n

Both scenarios likely involve a retest of the $94,000 zone. The key difference lies in what happens after that test, whether price acceptance confirms strength, or rejection signals another leg lower.<\/span><\/p>\n
