Bitcoin Futures Break Above All-Time High

Catch Up: Previous BTC Technical Review – June Analysis


Bitcoin CME Futures have broken decisively above the previous all-time high (ATH) at $112,110, trading at $118,840 with a strong +4.36% daily move. This marks a major technical breakout as bulls surge past psychological resistance, powered by a falling dollar, growing ETF inflows, and broad risk-on sentiment.

This breakout could pave the way for the new bull move, with $125,000–$130,000 coming into view if momentum continues.

Key Price Zones

Level TypePrice Range
New Support (prior ATH)$112,000–$113,000
Minor Support$105,000–$107,000
First Resistance Target$123,000–$125,000
Fibonacci Extension Zone$128,000–$132,000

The previous ATH now flips into support. Any retest of this zone could attract dip buyers. At the moment, the price action is firmly bullish and has broken past that level with a lot of power, so any dips back to that support seem unlikely as of now.

Macro & Sentiment Drivers

  • DXY weakness continues, driving crypto and risk assets higher.
  • ETF inflows and institutional demand are accelerating post-ATH breakout.
  • Global equity rally and Fed pause expectations provide macro tailwind.

Dollar correlation remains strong: Bitcoin has been inversely tracking the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), which just broke key support. This gives BTC room to extend the rally if macro conditions remain loose.

Conclusion
Bitcoin futures have officially entered price discovery, breaking above the prior ATH and launching into uncharted territory. The technicals remain strongly bullish, but as always in crypto, volatility is high, and a retest of breakout zones is common.

Traders may consider holding breakout positions with a trailing stop, or waiting for a retest of the $112k–$113k area to re-enter with favorable risk-reward.
