 <p>Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">price</a> action focusing on $27,500.</p> 
 <p>The pair unwound overnight, descending from six-week highs near $28,600 to bounce at $27,335 before stabilizing.</p> 
 <p>Despite the risk of the October opening move becoming a form of “fakeout,” market participants kept their cool.</p> 
 <p>“Yesterday's breakout did not instantly send us to $30k. I consider this a good thing, because those vertical moves often retrace,” popular <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="trader" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/trader.html">trader</a> Jelle wrote in part of an X reaction.</p>

 <p>Daan Crypto Trades likewise argued that a “slow grind back up to the highs” would be the best scenario for Bitcoin bulls.</p> 
 <p>“Need longs to chill out and spot bid to step back in for this to happen. Let's see if the Asia session is bullish again or not,” he added about <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="trader" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/trader.html">trader</a> behavior.</p>

 <p>“Spot takers did try to push higher around $28.5K &amp; were sold into -&gt; led to the sell off,” part of the day’s X content explained. </p>

 <p>While “indicating a continuation of the down trend,” a return past $26,800 would give cause for a rethink, it wrote in accompanying X commentary.</p> 
 <p>“Also, keep in mind, the exact same range we’ve been trading in for months is still intact until something breaks,” it concluded.</p> 
 <blockquote>
   “Until BTC prints a lower low on the Weekly chart, don’t rule out the possibility of retesting resistance.”
