The flagship crypto has reclaimed the $100,000 barrier, lost during the February pullback, and rallied to a three-month high of $105,819.<\/p>\n<p>Amid the market recovery, BTC has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-faces-key-resistance-after-10-weekly-rally-confirmation-or-rejection-next\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">re-entered<\/a> its post-US elections range, between the $92,000 and $106,000 levels, trading just 4.4% below its January all-time high (ATH). However, the massive rally seems to have slowed after nearing the range\u2019s upper level, which could momentarily halt its next leg up.<\/p>\n<p>This week, Bitcoin has ranged between $101,500-$105,000, taking out most of the liquidation clusters within the weekly range lows.

If Bitcoin remains inside the formation, it could surge to the $110,000-$112,000 levels.<\/p>\n<p>However, if Bitcoin falls below the lower boundary, around $100,000, it could lose the key <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-key-range-against-bitcoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">support<\/a> and attempt to fill the CME Gap around the $92,000 before a new ATH rally.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, market watcher Ted Pillows <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TedPillows\/status\/1922964745260294412\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">highlighted<\/a> Bitcoin\u2019s correlation with the Global M2 money supply.
