Bitcoin - Bulls vs Bears: $106k or New ATH?

Bitcoin saw a sharp and aggressive drop following Donald Trump’s surprise announcement of a 50% tariff on EU imports. The sudden macro shock triggered broad risk-off flows, with BTC quickly selling off from local highs near 111.3K and tapping into a key fair value gap around 107.5K. Although we’ve seen a short-term bounce since that low, it’s not a convincing bullish reversal. Momentum remains fragile, and the overall structure still favors caution as we trade within a compression zone formed post-drop. Key Technical Zones We’re currently trapped between two major 1H fair value gaps that serve as clear boundaries for market direction. The lower zone around 107.5K has provided temporary support, acting as a reaction point after the dump. This FVG was left behind during the early-May rally and is now being tested for the first time. On the flip side, price was rejected earlier today from the upper 1H FVG at 109.8K to 110.7K, which previously served as the base of the last breakdown candle. That rejection confirms sellers are active at that level, and it’s now acting as resistance. We’re essentially in a deadlock between demand and supply, and the next break will determine directional bias for the next major leg. Bullish Scenario If bulls can reclaim the 109.8K–110.7K area with strength and close above it convincingly, that would indicate demand has absorbed the supply in that zone. Ideally, we’d want to see a clear bullish displacement to confirm strength, not just a weak grind. In that scenario, BTC could make its way back toward the previous highs and retest the higher resistance zone around 112K. This level lines up with a larger supply zone and could become a key magnet if the market shifts risk-on again or if shorts begin to unwind. Bearish Scenario On the flip side, if BTC fails to hold the lower FVG and breaks below 109K with a strong bearish candle or wick rejection from the upper range, it opens the door for further downside.
