Bitcoin, Edul Patel, CEO of Mudrex, said, is trading range-bound around $111,300 as investors turn cautious following weak macroeconomic data and geopolitical concerns. "The BLS revised job growth downward by 911,000 jobs, indicating a fragile job market. However, Thursday’s CPI release and the European Central Bank’s rate decision could act as key catalysts influencing market direction."
A breakout above $113,000, Patel believes, would confirm renewed momentum, with strong support at $110,400.
Riya Sehgal, research analyst at Delta Exchange, on the other hand, said, “Bitcoin is consolidating within an ascending triangle, with $113,500 emerging as a key breakout level that could open the path to $115,000–116,000."
