 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-key-btc-levels-to-watch">Key BTC levels to Watch</h2>
 <p class="paragraph">The current Bitcoin trading situation represents a critical point, as the cryptocurrency challenges key support and resistance levels. The immediate support level is identified at $58,072, closely followed by a more optimistic resistance level at $64,499.&nbsp;</p>
 <p class="paragraph">According to <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="predict" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/predict.html">predict</a>ions from artificial intelligence (AI) machine algorithm models, BTC is expected to see a bearish trend in the long term, suggesting a projected decrease of minor 1.7%, with a target <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">price</a> of $60,044 by May 1.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">However, in the short term, machine learning algorithms detect a bullish trend, indicating a potential slight increase in the next few hours.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">The algorithms that deploy technical analysis (TA) indicators like relative strength index (RSI), moving average convergence divergence (MACD), Bollinger Bands (BB), average true range (ATR), and others.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Beside AI predictions, crypto expert <em>Ali Martinez</em> thinks that key support levels will determine BTC’s direction. If Bitcoin falls below $62,300, the&nbsp; analyst suggests it could drop to $56,200. Conversely, a rise above $62,300 could signal a potential upswing to $66,500.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Meanwhile, cryptocurrency analyst <em>CryptoCon</em> proposed on April 17 that the ongoing correction is an essential measure aimed at achieving long-term price stability.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-impact-of-external-factors-on-bitcoin">The impact of external factors on Bitcoin</h2>
 <p class="paragraph">A strengthening dollar, encouraged by the Federal Reserve’s decision to hold off on interest rate cuts, is suppressing the bullish outlook for BTC.&nbsp;</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Investors are anticipating future high rates, which makes holding onto dollar-denominated assets more appealing. This presents a challenge for Bitcoin as it approaches its April 19 or 20 halving event.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Both the halving and the dollar’s strength are likely to be key factors influencing Bitcoin’s future price movements. Historically, Bitcoin has benefited from a weak dollar, with its price rising as the dollar falls.&nbsp;</p>
 <p class="paragraph">However, the upcoming halving event makes it difficult to predict Bitcoin’s future direction.</p>
