Bitcoin is trading near $63,567 this Friday after successfully finding support at the $62,300 mark on Thursday. This recovery suggests that buyers are still active at the lower end of the current price range, providing a potential floor for a short term bounce.

Despite this brief stability, the technical picture remains cautious. Bitcoin is still trading below its 50 day, 100 day, and 200 day moving averages, which act as barriers for any recovery attempt. With the Relative Strength Index at 46 and the MACD showing negative momentum, sellers still hold a slight advantage in the market.

To change the current bearish outlook, Bitcoin needs to climb back above the 50 day moving average near $64,488. A move beyond the $66,500 zone would also be necessary to prove that the recovery has real strength. If the price falls below $62,300, the market may retest the cycle low of $57,800.

Traders should watch the $64,488 level closely as a sign of potential momentum shifting toward the bulls. Until Bitcoin reclaims its major moving averages, the recovery will likely face significant resistance from sellers looking to capitalize on recent volatility.
