Bitcoin Price Prediction: With $71,000 Under Their Belt, Bulls Set Sights on New ATHs

Published by

Analysts are optimistic about Bitcoin, pointing out that it continues to show strong signals for a bull market. The price remains above a critical support level, bouncing back and positioning itself for a possible breakout.

While Bitcoin’s trajectory appears bullish, other cryptocurrencies are showing mixed signals. Ethereum is playing out a short-term bullish divergence, indicating possible upward momentum in the near future. On the other hand, Solana is struggling around a resistance level, which could limit its potential for immediate gains.

Analyst Josh of Crypto World is currently watching the critical BTC resistance levels at approximately $69,200, $70,000, and $72,000. If Bitcoin breaks above these levels, it could pave the way for new all-time highs. Here’s why:

$69,200: This level has historically served as a point of resistance, and a breakthrough here could signal stronger upward momentum.

$70,000: Crossing this psychological barrier is crucial, as it may trigger increased buying activity and potentially lead to a short squeeze.

$72,000 and above: Additional resistance is noted just below this level, with further challenges expected around the previous all-time high of approximately $73,500.

However, at the time of writing, Bitcoin is up by more than five percent and is trading slightly above the $71k level.

Long-Term Indicators

On the weekly chart, Bitcoin’s RSI has broken through a significant descending resistance line, a move that historically led up to major bull runs. This pattern suggests a bullish momentum over the next year, even as the market experiences short-term fluctuations.

Potential Short Squeeze

Recent trading activity indicates the potential for a short squeeze, especially if Bitcoin can break above $71,000. This scenario would add buying pressure as short positions get liquidated, potentially driving prices higher.
