Bitcoin: Skew Flags $78K Inflection

Bitcoin faces an immediate binary test at $78K after Skew posted the terse alert on May 26, 2026.

Price sits at $76862.7 inside the Bollinger band, with upper resistance at $78188.29 and lower support at $75405.18. The 4h structure remains bearish as price holds below both EMA50 at $77214.88 and EMA200 at $77333.86, yet the MACD has printed a golden cross at 52.33 while RSI(14) rests neutral at 48.97. Institutional desks watch for a rejection at the upper band that could force a swift retracement toward the 50-EMA before any sustained continuation higher. BTC price prediction models now hinge on whether bulls can convert the momentum signal into a clean break above $78K.
