Bitcoin is stuck in a narrow range, with prices showing little direction. The broader picture looks flat as major stock indices such as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq are also moving sideways. With no strong push either way, Bitcoin remains in a holding pattern.
This phase started around November 21 and reflects a cooling period after earlier price moves. Bitcoin saw a bounce, followed by a slightly higher low and a marginally higher high, before drifting back toward the middle of its recent range.
Price bands remain intact
Bitcoin continues to trade between clear upper and lower zones. On the upper side, prices have struggled between $92,800 and $101,200. On the lower side, support has held between $82,000 and $85,200. As long as prices stay inside this band, there is no clear shift in direction.
There is also no confirmed peak in place. Some analysts point to the mid-$70,000 area as a possible downside zone if support breaks, but that level has not been tested yet.
Short-term price action stays mixed
On shorter charts, Bitcoin keeps moving back and forth without follow-through. Attempts to stay above the $91,000 to $92,000 area have faded, while support around $86,500 to $88,200 has so far held.
Price movements remain uneven, showing small swings rather than a clear trend. The market continues to wait for stronger signals before choosing a direction.
What could shift the market
A firm move above resistance would open room toward the $97,000 to $98,500 range. Until then, Bitcoin is likely to remain range-bound, tracking broader financial markets and offering limited clarity on its next major move.
