The waiting game for cryptocurrency traders continues after Bitcoin (BTC) consolidates below the $ 43,000 resistance again, and a certain speed is expected that can support the $ 50,000 range.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView show that the price of Bitcoin has fluctuated between $ 41,500 and $ 43,000 in the last two days, and with rising tensions between Ukraine and Russia, many traders are less optimistic about Bitcoin’s short-term outlook.

A more detailed reading of the formation of the current chart is given by cryptanalyst and Twitter user TechDev, who posted the following chart, which divides BTC’s “year range” into two-week sub-ranges.
