Bitcoin Chart Analysis Flags $86,720 Resistance and Rising-Channel Support

Bitcoin (BTC) is near the lower boundary of a rising channel that appears to encompass recent price action, while resistance at $86,720 and mixed momentum indicators leave the chart setup unresolved. The channel has touched its upper boundary twice. Another touch would help validate the pattern. A confirmed move below the lower boundary could signal a breakdown toward roughly $70,000. A shorter-term descending trendline could break to the upside, allowing BTC to rise toward $86,720 and potentially form a higher high. That level is a key resistance point in the chart setup.
