On April 20, 2026, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading near $75,200, navigating a complex landscape of strong institutional demand and heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.
Bitcoin has been in a corrective rally since February and I have been tracking higher prices since then. The market is now following the 2022 bear market pattern almost perfectly, including the rejection at the 21 week EMA. In 2022, Bitcoin pushed roughly 10 percent above the 21 week EMA before topping. If that happens again, it would take us to approximately 86.5K, right into the middle of the target zone I have been tracking.
In this video I walk through the higher timeframe structure, the 2022 comparison, the RSI resistance that is currently building, and the two short term pathways that could unfold this week.
