On the hourly chart, the price of Bitcoin (BTC) is trading in the middle of the narrow channel between the support at $26,386 and the resistance at $26,633.
Any sharp moves are unlikely until the end of the day as the coin has passed most of its ATR. In this case, ongoing sideways trading in the area of $26,500 is the more likely scenario.

On the bigger time frame, the rate of BTC has almost tested the resistance at $26,809, where it found bears' pressure. If a local decline does not happen, traders may expect one more attempt to break out of the $26,800 zone. If that happens, the upward move may lead to the $27,200-$27,600 area.

On the weekly chart, the rate of BTC has made a false breakout of the mirror level at $24,819, which means that buyers have locally seized the initiative. However, it is too early to think about a fast reversal as the main crypto needs to accumulate more energy. Respectively, consolidation in the range of $26,000-$27,000 is the more likely scenario until the end of the month.
Bitcoin is trading at $26,483 at press time.
