Crypto Market Analysis: August 26 Signals Indicate Potential Bitcoin Pullback

Aaron Dishner, co-founder and lead instructor at The Better Traders, Inc., has released his latest market analysis for cryptocurrencies as of August 26, 2026. According to Dishner, Bitcoin is approaching the $81,788 TBO Resistance level with bearish divergence signals, but a confirmed reversal is lacking. He notes that while Bitcoin's Relative Strength Index (RSI) is making lower highs and trading volume is declining, this alone does not establish a solid reversal case.

Dishner suggests that Bitcoin may pull back near historical resistance, but a decisive break above the TBO Resistance level would challenge his bearish bias. Meanwhile, Ethereum has surpassed its 2025-2026 resistance cluster and appears structurally strong on the weekly chart, despite a recent 4-hour TBT Bearish Divergence.

The market breadth and rotation analysis also reveal mixed signals. Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) is rising significantly, while Ethereum dominance (ETH.D) shows a TBT Bearish Divergence. However, Dishner remains optimistic about the overall market environment, despite potential Bitcoin pullbacks.
