Bitcoin (BTC) has shown the area separating net buyers and sellers is the $40.9K area based on data collected between October last year and April 2022.
Market analyst under the pseudonym PlanB noted:
“Bitcoin movement between October 2021 ($61K) and April 2022 ($41K). Net buyers in the $40.9K-$81.9K range, and net sellers mainly from $2.5K-$40.9K range, profit taking.”

These statistics imply that Bitcoin experiences an upward momentum after crossing above the $40.9K area, and a downtrend if the price trades below this zone.
Therefore, the $40,900 price level is emerging as a fundamental area in the current BTC market.
For instance, after nosediving below the psychological price of $40K over the weekend, market analyst Ali Martinez believes Bitcoin needs to reclaim this zone if a surge towards $45,000 is to be realized.
He pointed out:
“Bitcoin is back to square one. BTC needs to get back above $40,800 for a chance to rebound to $45,000 or even $50,000. Be aware a decisive daily close below $39,400-$38,500 can invalidate the optimistic outlook and result in a retracement to $35,000 or even $30,000 for BTC.”

Crypto trader Michael van de Poppe shared similar sentiments that Bitcoin should hold the $39K level to avoid slipping to $36,000.
