Bitcoin has repeatedly treated the $106,400 level as a pivotal point in its current cycle, alternating between resistance and support. When the price clears the level it tends to expand into the next price channel, while breaks below prompt a repair phase before any upward move resumes. Analysts chart these channels to assess whether the latest retest will confirm a bullish breakout or signal further downside. The outcome of this retest could shape market sentiment and price direction in the near term.
