Bitcoin tests crucial $78,000 support after dropping nearly 4% from $82,281 peak

Bitcoin fell nearly 4% from its recent high of $82,281 to around $79,000, testing a key support level at $78,000. This support will determine if the recent bullish breakout holds or if prices could drop further toward $74,081. The prior rise was partly driven by a short squeeze that liquidated $250 million in short positions, but momentum is weakening as short-term indicators turn bearish. While the daily trend remains positive, a close below $76,800 could signal a deeper decline, making the $78,000 level critical for Bitcoin's near-term direction.
