Bitcoin Price Forecast Today: Technical Analysis and Signals for 2026

Bitcoin Price Forecasts for Today and the Long Term

Bitcoin price forecasts with a technical analysis of the short and long term using WD Gann cycles.

Short-Term Crypto Forecasts in BTC

In the first half of 2026, we observed that Bitcoin prices triggered a new corrective trend, which brought prices down to the 58,000 range during the week of June 28.

The week of June 28, 2026, coincided with the Low Square, which—together with the 1X8 and 1X2 angles and the static octaves—led to a shift in the cryptocurrency’s momentum toward a positive sideways trend.

The trading range persisted for seven weeks until August 16.

In the weekly setups for August 23–30, 2026, Bitcoin prices surged.

From 62,683, BTC in USD rose to 81,461, repositioning weekly returns above the ascending 1X1 angle depicted by the red vector in the image above.

The next key market timing signal coincides with the week of September 25, 2026.

Currently, the trend is positive, and the next resistance levels are in the 84,800 and 89,200 ranges.

Only a return below 62,380 would restore a negative technical outlook in the short term.

For downward retracements, support levels are located around 74,000 and 70,800.

Bitcoin Price: Medium-Term Trend

Cryptocurrency prices fell from October 2025 to July 2026.

As shown in the chart, between July 2025 and October 2025, a distribution formed on the upper side of the ascending channel, clearly illustrated by the 1X2 angular vectors highlighted in yellow.

With the break of the lower boundary of the distribution in November 2025, BTC’s bear market began, gradually reaching the bottom of the channel itself in July at 58,033.

The latest Bitcoin market signal expired last August with the Low Square.

During this period, the market laid the groundwork for a new bull phase for the cryptocurrency, as it managed to negate the previous High Square signal that expired in June.

Initial targets: 91,260; 99,550.

Downward retracements will find support in the 67,000; 62,420 area.

Quarterly Technical Analysis and Trading Signals for Bitcoin in USD

Bitcoin’s long-term trend remains negative.

However, the bull run is not over yet.

In fact, we can see that the current all-time high from the third quarter of 2025 coincided with the 1X2 angle vector of the bullish channel.

However, the price-to-time ratio of that channel belongs to the previous bull run of 2017–2022.

The current one is by no means over, but it is laying the groundwork for a potential long-term accumulation zone.

We will see a positive recovery when the price returns above 83,150.

Initial targets: the 92,900 area.

Support levels: the 58,600 and 47,000 areas.
