Bitcoin has broken out of a technical formation that may place it on track toward a decisive test zone between $96,200 and $102,100. If confirmed in the coming days, the movement would represent a major price development in Bitcoin’s ongoing market structure. A crypto analyst highlighted this zone as one where Bitcoin’s trajectory could either extend to new highs or face its next rejection.

Bitcoin’s price action in the past 24 hours is highlighted by a return to $85,000 as buying pressure started to creep in. Interestingly, this buying pressure has broken out above the upper trendline of a descending broadening wedge formation. This pattern is typically considered a reversal signal, and its breakout implies strong upward continuation if validated.

The breakout of the formation was noted in an analysis posted onsocial media platform X by crypto analyst Titan of Crypto. Notably, the price chart shared by the analyst shows that the wedge formation has been taking place in the daily candlestick timeframe over the past three months. The wedge began forming after Bitcoin’s peak above $108,000 in late January and gradually widened.

At the time of the analysis, Bitcoin’s price had already madetwo daily candlestick closes above the upper trendline of the broadening wedge. According to the analyst, the breakout will most likely be confirmed this week. If confirmed, this will open up the stage for a run above the $100,000 price level again or at least $96,200. 

Particularly, Titan of Crypto highlighted the region between $96,200 and $102,100 as the next target zone. The analyst emphasized that this range may act as the actual test of Bitcoin’s strength, as it will reveal whether the breakout leads to continuation or stalls into rejection.

Crypto analyst Sensei also commented onBitcoin’s current price structure, noting that a move to $90,000 could trigger a massive liquidation event. Based on data from Coinglass, more than $8 billion in short positions would be vulnerable if Bitcoin rose above $90,000 again. BTC is now trading at $84,706. Chart: TradingView

The cumulative short liquidation chart from Coinglass shows a large wall of leveraged short interest concentrated below that level across major exchanges like Binance, OKX, and Bybit.

The data reflects a significant imbalance in the derivatives market, with short positions dominating until the $90,000 mark, beyond which liquidation-driven buying could intensify. If Bitcoin does push into this zone, the resulting cascade of liquidations among short positions may provide the momentum required to push the Bitcoin price toward the $96,200 to $102,100 target zone.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $84,706.
