On the broader time frame, the technical set-up indicates infringement of the upper side to reach the higher levels in the short term.

BTC price consolidates near higher levels
BTC price touched the highs of $42,195.40 on Wednesday, however, retraced sharply as the trading extends in the U.S session.
An acceptance above the 50-day EMA (Exponential Moving Average) could be considered a key level triggering an upside breakout in BTC. The first upside target could be found at the April 6 highs at $45,548.77.
This also coincides with the break of another important moving average of 200-day EMA.
On the flip side, a fall below the session’s low would invalidate the bullish hypothesis in the asset. In that case, the price could drop toward the horizontal support zone at $39,000. Further, a break below the lower consolidation range would prompt the sellers to take out the lows of March 7 at $37,169.52.
