Keith Alan, co-founder of trading resource Material Indicators, emphasized the importance of turning $69,000 into support.

Bitcoin stayed near key price levels into the May 26 weekly close, with weekend trading centering around $69,000.

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed a strong performance by BTC/USD, which briefly surpassed $69,500 before consolidating.

Despite some market predictions for a weekend upside, resistance zones kept gains in check.

“As price is ranging around ~$69K, there’s some liquidity building up on both sides,” noted popular trader Daan Crypto Trades in his latest analysis on X (formerly Twitter).

“Most notably: $68.3K & $69.8K. Good levels to watch in the short term going into next week.”

An accompanying chart highlighted liquidity concentrations for the BTC/USDT perpetual swaps pair on Binance, the largest global exchange.

Across BTC order books, liquidity was increasing around the spot price, leading to lower volatility but raising the chances of a liquidity raid later.
