After the sharp drop in mid-October, which caused liquidations of over $19 billion, Bitcoin began to recover again. Its price has risen from lows near $105,000 to even touch $116,000 today, setting up for significant movements this week.

At the time of writing, the price of Bitcoin is trading at $115,047, with daily gains of 1.33%, weekly gains of 3.39%, and monthly gains of 5.21%. While the largest cryptocurrency rises, the movements in the altcoin market are mixed.

What is behind the current levels of BTC?

The last week of October is marked by the coincidence of several key macroeconomic factors, making it a decisive period for financial markets and cryptocurrencies. BTC could be reacting to these factors.

However, the main event will be the meeting of the U.S. Federal Reserve, which will conclude its FOMC meeting on Wednesday and announce its decisions regarding interest rates and the future of its Quantitative Easing program.

There is also optimism regarding the fact that former U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are scheduled to meet on Thursday, October 30, 2025.

The most enthusiastic analysts foresee an agreement that will end the trade conflict. The meeting will take place during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum (APEC) in South Korea.

This way, this week is shaping up to be a period with multiple favorable factors for the market.

Analysis of BTC charts: key levels to watch

The price of BTC is in the midst of a strong weekly bullish trend and has surpassed significant resistance levels. It now faces new challenges below $120,000.

Resistances to consider:

  • $116,437: resistance level corresponding to the weekly high where BTC corrected sharply.
  • $118,000: intermediate resistance zone where profit-taking could occur.
  • $120,000: the most significant psychological resistance, whose breakout could push BTC back towards highs.

Supports to observe:

  • $114,510: daily low, aligned with the EMA 50.
  • $112,970: level where BTC could find support, although not with great solidity.
  • $110,000: stronger psychological support, likely defense point for buyers.

The RSI, currently at 50 points, shows a balance between bullish and bearish pressure. In the short term, everything points to a phase of stability and consolidation.
