Bitcoin Struggles to Regain Control Below $116K
Crypto analyst Crypto Jobs highlighted that the four-hour (H4) structure has gone bearish with Ichimoku confirmation. The recent breakout of the H4 range transformed $116,000 into powerful resistance. Price action currently has the challenge of recapturing the upper hand without volume and momentum.

However, the sellers are currently pressuring the $113,000 level, which is currently providing local support. A failure to retain this region will see a push towards $110,500 and $110,000. The further downside might stretch to the level of the $107,000 and the $104,000 as the key weekly support area.

That wider range of $110,000 to $104,000 is where the bulls are observing a healthy retest. A rebound out of this range can be an indication of the completion of the correction. Nevertheless, if it breaks below this level and falls to lower degrees, it can start a deeper bearish trend, canceling the bullish weekly formation.

Volume and Open Interest Drop
According to CoinGlass data, the trading volume reduced by 8.64% to $101.73 billion. Open interest also dropped by 1.79% to $82.13 billion, showing a decrease in open leveraged positions. The OI-weighted funding rate still stands at a very modest positive, 0.0045% indicating that the market is slightly long biased.

Bitcoin is in a corrective trend and the short-term mood is bearish. Despite the fact that the weekly chart still indicates the possibility of bullish extension, traders have to be cautious on the short-term price action. The $110,000 and $104,000 zone will be a defining battle area. Strong defence can renew the bullish hopes, but a breakdown can attract deeper losses in the future.
