Bitcoin traded near $84,668 on October 3, down 1.6% after failing to hold gains above $87,000. The price remains stuck in a tight range between $83,000 and $87,000, with resistance around $86,000-$87,000 potentially leading to a drop toward $62,000 if broken. Institutional investors like BlackRock and Fidelity continue buying, supporting the price despite sideways trading and rising liquidations. U.S. labor data showing weaker job growth and higher unemployment influenced market sentiment, easing pressure on the Federal Reserve to raise rates further, but other macro factors like Treasury yields and inflation risks still impact Bitcoin's next move.
Bitcoin price remains confined within the $83,000 to $87,000 range as of early October 2026.
