The daily chart shows $BTC inside a descending channel that has broken down three times in 2026, with price currently pressing against the upper trendline after recovering from the June 25 low near $58,000. Analyst Ali Charts flagged the rejection explicitly, noting $BTC is getting turned away at the channel‘s upper boundary and identifying $59,700 as the immediate pullback target and $56,550 as the next downside level if that doesn’t hold.

Why Do Three Straight ETF Inflows Matter For Bitcoin？

US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $21.44M in net inflows on July 7, the third consecutive day of positive flows following $265.69M on July 6 and $221.72M on July 2. That three-day streak is the first since May 4, 5 and 6, breaking an eight-week run of outflows that drained more than $8.6 billion from the funds.

BlackRock‘s IBIT led July 7 with $54.80M, though Fidelity’s FBTC saw $24.92M in outflows and ARK‘s fund lost $8.44M, keeping the net total modest. Cumulative inflows across all funds now stand at $51.37B with total net assets at $77.26B. Three days doesn’t confirm a trend reversal, but the prior streak ending in early May preceded a rally to $83,000, giving bulls a historical reference point even if the macro backdrop is considerably noisier now.

How Are US-Iran Tensions Affecting Bitcoins Price？

Irans Revolutionary Guards struck US military sites in Bahrain and Kuwait overnight after the US launched a wave of strikes against Iran in response to tanker attacks in the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude jumped 3.3% to $76.59 a barrel on the news while the dollar firmed to its highest level in a week.

Risk assets tend to struggle when geopolitical uncertainty spikes alongside a stronger dollar, and crypto is no exception. Analysts at DBS noted markets appear to be treating the exchange of strikes as tactical positioning ahead of the mid-August ceasefire expiry rather than a full return to open conflict, which limits the immediate damage but keeps the risk premium elevated.

Volume fell 28.58% to $58.55B while open interest dropped 2.79% to $45.26B, both declining together as traders step back. Liquidations over 24 hours hit $77.54M, longs losing $47.31M against $30.23M for shorts, showing buyers who chased the recovery are getting caught on the pullback.

The long/short ratio at 0.9806 is near balanced, with neither side in clear control at current levels.

Bitcoin Price

• Upside case:The ETF inflow streak extends to four days, the channel top breaks on volume, and $BTC targets $65,511 on the 50-day EMA as the next recovery milestone.
• Downside case:The channel rejection holds, geopolitical risk keeps dollar strength elevated, and $BTC pulls back to $59,700 as Ali Charts flagged, with $56,550 as the deeper target if that fails.
