Bitcoin (BTC) has been clinging to the 200-day simple moving average ($84,359), which suggests that the bulls have kept up the pressure. That improves the prospects of an upside breakout, signaling the corrective phase may be ending. Derive founder Nick Forster told Cointelegraph that the current pullback is a normal correction that Bitcoin experiences during long-term rallies. He anticipates that Bitcoin’s cycle peak is yet to come. A positive sign in favor of bulls is that the US spot Bitcoin […]
Bitcoin (BTC) has largely stayed above $80,000 since March 11, indicating that the bulls are not waiting for a deeper correction to buy. However, the failure to propel the price above $86,000 shows that the bears have not given up and continue to sell on rallies. CoinShares’ weekly report shows that cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) witnessed $1.7 billion in outflows last week. That takes the total five-week outflows to $6.4 billion. Additionally, the streak of outflows has reached 17 days, […]
Bitcoin (BTC) has risen back above the 200-day simple moving average ($83,754), indicating that the bulls are attempting a comeback. The failure of the bears to capitalize on the drop below the 200-day SMA shows that selling dries up at lower levels. However, Bitcoin may not be out of the woods yet. Crypto analyst Matthew Hyland said in a video posted to X that Bitcoin needs a weekly close above $89,000 to confirm a bottom. A move above $89,000 could […]
Bitcoin (BTC) bounced from $76,606 on March 11, but the bulls could not sustain the price above $84,500 on March 12. Nansen principal research analyst Aurelie Barthere told Cointelegraph that Bitcoin is in a macro correction in a bull market, with the next crucial level being “$71,000-$72,000, top of the pre-election trading range.” Glassnode also projected a similar target in its March 11 market report. The onchain analytics firm said the recent sell-off had been triggered by the short-term holders […]
Bitcoin (BTC) bulls tried to push the price above $85,000, but the bears held their ground. A minor positive is that larger investors seem to be accumulating at lower levels. Research firm Santiment said in a post on X that wallets with 10 BTC or more have bought roughly 5,000 Bitcoin since March 3. The researchers added that if buying by the large players continues, the second half of March could be much better than the recent performance of Bitcoin. […]
Bitcoin (BTC) rebounded off the intraday low on March 7 and is trying to claw back above the $90,000 resistance, indicating buying at lower levels. Bitcoin sold off after the US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve executive order signed by US President Donald Trump fell short of expectations. However, some analysts consider the reserve formation to be bullish as they expect other nations to follow the US in establishing their own strategic Bitcoin reserves. Additionally, the reserve mitigates the fears some institutional […]
Bitcoin (BTC) turned up from $81,500 on March 4, and the bulls are trying to extend the recovery above $90,000 on March 5. However, some analysts do not expect Bitcoin to run up in the near term. Bitfinex analysts said in a March 3 markets report that Bitcoin could face “significant resistance” at $94,000. In another note of caution, CryptoQuant contributor XBTManager said in a Quicktake post that Bitcoin is likely to extend its consolidation for some time. Hence, risky […]
Bitcoin (BTC) dropped close to $78,000 on Feb. 28, but lower levels attracted solid buying by the bulls. CryptoQuant founder and CEO Ki Young Ju said in a post on X that selling after a 30% correction could be a “noob” mistake as Bitcoin rose to a new all-time high after falling 53% in 2021. Select whales seem to be building a position during the dip. A Bitcoin whale, known as “Spoofy,” bought 4,000 Bitcoin worth roughly $344 million when […]
Bitcoin (BTC) price dropped into the $85,000 region on Feb. 26, flashing a clear signal that the crypto market is not out of the woods yet. The break below the $90,000 support on Feb. 25 tilted the advantage in favor of the bears. That triggered $937.9 million in outflows from the US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds. Has Bitcoin topped out, or is the current fall only a pullback in a solid uptrend? That is the big question in trader’s minds. […]
