Bitcoin price prediction for October 13 stays bullish above $83,476, the level BTC needs to hold after rebounding from last week’s drop to $80,335.
Bitcoin Price Analysis: Can BTC Reclaim $84,217 After Rebounding From $80,335?
BTC trades near $84,127, up 0.73% over the past four hours, recovering after a sharp drop to about $80,335 last week. That rebound has lifted price back to the midpoint of its recent decline, with the next hurdle at $84,217. Clearing that level would open the door toward $85,470 and then $86,617, the high BTC fell from last week.
Price is holding above its short-term moving averages, which cluster just below current levels after last week’s dip, while the longer 200-day average sits further down at $81,887, keeping the broader uptrend intact. Momentum has also turned back up: the RSI, a gauge of buying and selling pressure, had fallen sharply during last week’s decline but has since climbed back above its own average, pointing to renewed strength behind the bounce.

BTC News: ETF Outflows Meet Falling Exchange Supply
US spot Bitcoin ETFs posted $681 million in net outflows last week, snapping a three-week run of inflows according to SoSoValue.
Meanwhile, Trader Josh (@CryptoWorldJosh on X) points to a different signal: Bitcoin reserves on exchanges have fallen to a seven-month low, with roughly 700,000 BTC pulled off exchanges over the past year. In his view, that shrinking supply could fuel a sharp rally if buying demand picks up. He gave no source for the figures.

Does Peter Schiff Still Think Bitcoin Will Crash?
Yes. Gold bug Peter Schiff said he’s surprised Bitcoin “held on to its gains” while gold reversed, and he still expects BTC to fall to new lows, according to a post from Scott Melker (The Wolf Of All Streets on X).
Schiff laid out the contrast between the two assets:
| Asset | Recent Move |
| Gold | Ran to $5,500, fell to $4,000, bounced to 4,600–4,700 on hawkish Fed comments, then slid back to $4,000 |
| Bitcoin | Fell to $60,000 earlier this year, climbed to $85,000, and has held those gains |
Schiff admitted he isn’t sure what’s holding Bitcoin up. His outlook is unchanged: this is his own long-standing bearish call, not a confirmed market signal.
Bitcoin Liquidations Today: Shorts Lose $39.62 Million
Traders betting on a falling BTC price, known as short sellers, lost $39.62 million of the $46.15 million liquidated over the past day as price pushed higher.
Futures volume jumped 68.90% to $31.02 billion, while open interest, the total value of bets still open, rose a more modest 1.99% to $52.53 billion, so the move looks driven more by active trading than by a wave of fresh leverage.
Traders lean long on both major exchanges, with Binance’s account ratio at 1.36 and OKX’s at 1.43.
| Metric | Value | What it means |
| Short liquidations (24h) | $39.62M of $46.15M | Bets against BTC took most of the losses |
| Futures volume (24h) | $31.02B, up 68.90% | Trading activity surged |
| Open interest | $52.53B, up 1.99% | Open bets rose only modestly |
| Binance long/short ratio | 1.36 | More accounts betting on a rise than a drop |
Bitcoin Price Prediction: Bullish and Bearish Scenarios for October 13
Bullish Case, Target: $86,617
BTC holds the 0.5 Fibonacci level at $83,476 and closes a session above $84,217. That would open the 0.786 level near $85,470, with the 1.0 level at $86,617 as the next test if shorts keep getting liquidated.
Bearish Case, Risk Level: $81,818 (0.236 Fibonacci Level)
BTC loses the 0.5 Fibonacci level at $83,476 and the EMA cluster near $83,281 to $83,557. A close below the 0.382 level at $82,735 would put the 0.236 level at $81,818 in play, with the 200-day EMA at $81,887 sitting just above it.
