Bitcoin’s open interest fell 0.50% over the last 24 hours and more than 11% over the past week. Binance whale derivatives traders flipped “Bullish” on BTC, while the retail crowd remained “Neutral.”

“Greed” sentiment prevailed in the market, according to the Crypto Fear & Greed Index.

A busy week of key economic data lies ahead, with the August personal consumption expenditure price index due on Wednesday and the September jobs report on Friday.

## What Lies Ahead for Bitcoin?

**Michaël van de Poppe**, a widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader, identified $84,800 as the key resistance Bitcoin must break to resume its upward grind.

“If that breaks, I think that we’ll see a continuation towards the $90,000 levels,” Van De Poppe added.

> Essentially, there's only one level that #Bitcoin needs to break, and then, once again, we'll continue to grind higher.

> That's the $84,800.

Chartered Market Technician **Aksel Kibar** noted that Bitcoin’s weekly candle near $84,000-$85,000 “does not look like a decisive breakout.”

“Hesitant price action here can result in price returning inside the range,” the analyst added.

> Important note on $BTC: as we get close to end of week, the weekly candle does not look like a decisive breakout. Price taking out an important hurdle usually forms a long white or black weekly candle. See earlier breakouts/breakdowns.
