Bitcoin Magazine: BTC holds above $81,000, signaling possible start of new bull market
Experts are in an optimistic mood over Bitcoin’s unyielding hold on the $81,000 level, as reported by Bitcoin Magazine. Peter Bain of Blockstream suggests that with institutional interest on the upswing and such firm support, a new bull market may be underway.
At present, the asset is in the vicinity of $81,000; while 40% higher than in the summer, it still has some way to go to recoup its all-time high. Bain points to the fact that Bitcoin can stay above $81,000 as evidence of confidence despite ongoing uncertainty in global markets.
On the corporate side, Blockstream has established a presence in Europe with a Lugano hub and a new consulting arm for institutional clients looking to make the switch to Bitcoin. Switzerland offers a regulatory environment for digital assets that the company finds conducive to growth. There is also significant investment going into the security of the network, including quantum-safe initiatives and involvement with the Bitcoin Security Consortium. And with incidents like the Liquid hack now behind them, there is little to dampen the sector’s positive outlook.
The Moon Show: potential drop to $71,000 if weekly close stays below $80,600 support
Bitcoin is no longer holding a key support level, says the host of The Moon Show, and traders will have to see how Monday closes before making their next move. In what he describes as an important support zone on the daily chart (the blue box), Bitcoin has broken down. A weekly close at or below $80,600 would be the telltale sign of more downside, perhaps as far as $71,000, the analyst opines; such a result from BTC would put the bearish case beyond doubt.
As for shorting Bitcoin, he advises waiting for Monday’s confirmation before taking a position. One does not make blind guesses in this market; professional traders do not—they respond to conditions. On another matter, the analyst is not shy about his $3 million Ethereum stake or the loss he has taken on WXT. He urges viewers to be on the lookout for new opportunities, such as meme coin trading, but to always prioritize safety.
Crypto World: bitcoin eyes $75,000–$76,000 after breaking key $80,000 support
Bitcoin is in the process of losing the $80,000 to $82,000 support and could see further losses into the mid-$70,000s, says the host of Crypto World.
In his analysis, he sees a technical reversal on the daily chart that confirms the weakness and lack of any bullish momentum. A move below $80,000 would put the next major support level in the $75,000 to $76,000 range.
There is also the matter of Bitcoin dominance; the channel host cautions that if it breaks the 61% resistance, it will not be good for a number of altcoins. And while the near term looks bearish, the Supertrend on the weekly chart is still green, so the long-term uptrend remains intact.
Crypto Love: strong bullish momentum after resistance breakout, upside likely to continue
Bitcoin is in a strong bullish phase, having left resistance behind and moving to trade above the neckline of a double bottom, says the host of Crypto Love. The analyst suggests one should think twice before waiting for another dip under current conditions.
It is a textbook case of an upward trend, with the breakout above the double bottom neckline and resistance indicating a high likelihood of continued bullish momentum, as Crypto Love puts it. Yet there are still those who are selling; investors who bought at $89,000 and $97,000 in earlier cycles are among them, likely because they are underwater.
Regarding the recent correction, the channel reports that retail investors have been selling holdings at an average of $82,000. Those who held through the dip are not moving. But Crypto Love advises against trying to buy in on a 2 or 3 percent pullback; if the uptrend holds and the correction proves short-lived, one risks being left out.
CryptoFateev Ripple XRP Трейдер: potential drop to $76,000 amid exchange restrictions and market weakness
Bitcoin is in for more downside, says the host of CryptoFateev Ripple XRP Trader, given the weakness on display in the crypto market and the fact that large exchanges are barring Russian users.
HTX has ended access for holders of Russian passports, as have Max and BitGet, following EU sanctions and what appears to be pressure from the West. The expert points to this as a source of greater risk for those in such regions, with the prospect of being blocked from their accounts and trading platforms.
On the price side, the analyst sees BTC at $76,000 if things continue as they are, even though it is currently around $79,000 and altcoins are in decline. A swift recovery is not expected for the unstable market, according to the expert. There are still options like Bybit, but one should be aware of the associated risks and restrictions.
Crypto Capital Venture: targeting $100,000 for Bitcoin after current correction
The host of Crypto Capital Venture has put a $100,000 price target on Bitcoin once the current dip is over; in his view, that could be as steep as 26%. In the analyst’s opinion, what one would call an extended bullish cycle is at work behind the consolidation.
Bitcoin is under $80,000 at the moment, but he believes it can make its way to $100,000 after the correction runs its course. For evidence of more gains to come, he points to the fact that the asset has broken above the 50-week moving average, a technical indicator of some importance.
Should Bitcoin find support at $76,000 and hold it, the analyst thinks that may be enough to form a right shoulder for a head and shoulders pattern and spur further upside. At the same time, he cautions that with the election campaign in full swing and FOMC decisions approaching, short-term volatility is to be expected. He sees the compression in the market as a setup for a breakout from the sideways action and a crypto rally to follow.
CryptoJack: critical weekly close needed above $82,000 to avoid further downside
Bitcoin is still under pressure, says the host of CryptoJack, and an $82,000 weekly close is needed to stave off further losses. The analyst issues a warning: if that level is not secured with a close above it, one can expect a slide to $74,000 or even as low as $65,000.
In what CryptoJack sees as a defining week for Bitcoin, any failure to clear $82,000 by Sunday will paint a much more bearish picture, potentially opening the door to a drop to $74,000 or $65,000 and adding to the market’s negative sentiment. It is a technical level the host urges any trader to keep an eye on. In line with this cautious stance, the trader has taken short positions on a number of assets, including Bitcoin, as well as Solana, WLD, and NEAR, using high leverage in order to seek the best possible returns.
Suppoman: BTC potential limited to 2.5x growth among top 110 ranked coins
In a recent review of 110 cryptocurrencies, Suppoman has estimated Bitcoin’s growth at no more than 2.5x, a figure that leaves it behind some of the other altcoins in his assessment.
His analysis of potential returns on 110 coins, which can be as much as 100x or result in losses, places Bitcoin in the category of a steadier bet with an upside of 2.5x. Ethereum and Solana are given greater potential for growth by comparison.
Suppoman is of the opinion that the maximum gains on Bitcoin are limited by the risk profile and status of the asset compared to newer projects. He contrasts BTC’s prospects with those of Ethereum, forecasting 4x growth to reach $10,000, and Solana, where the speed of its Layer 1 blockchain may lead to a 10x increase.
Crypto Rover: BTC eyes $72,000–$75,000 amid oil surge and pre-election pressure
Bitcoin is feeling the pressure, says Crypto Rover, with Middle East tensions and rising oil prices creating unease in the period leading up to the US elections. The analyst has issued a word of caution that there could be more downside to come in the nine days until the vote.
In Crypto Rover’s view, the inflation and elevated interest rates resulting from the spike in oil prices are taking their toll on Bitcoin. Bearish sentiment toward BTC is compounded by the fact that US equities saw more than $500 billion erased yesterday.
One need only look at 1918 or 2014 to see how markets have fared in the past when an election was at hand. At present, liquidity is concentrated above the $85,000 mark, which could allow for further drops. Should BTC fall to between $72,000 and $75,000, Rover would consider buying; he also sees $79,000 as an opportunity for a long position. A softening of geopolitical hostilities or lower oil prices would be enough to support a crypto recovery, he contends.
MMCrypto: BTC awaits confirmation of W pattern breakout near $60,867 key level
MMCrypto puts it this way: on the weekly chart, a breakout of the bullish W pattern in Bitcoin is yet to be confirmed, and for the moment, the next move is uncertain. What will dictate the direction is the close of the current weekly candle, the channel’s author points out.
To confirm the W pattern breakout on the weekly timeframe, $60,867 is where Bitcoin faces resistance, says MMCrypto. A close below $60,867 by Sunday would, in the author’s view, mean the downward trend is set to continue. In the event of such a bearish confirmation, the trader sets the next target at around $52,000.
Nonetheless, despite the uncertainty, positions are being held in Monero as well as Ethereum and Bitcoin; the weekly close will be what matters in the weeks ahead. Open trades have netted the channel roughly $1 million in profit to date.
Benjamin Cowen: weekly close below $83,000 could trigger a bearish scenario
Benjamin Cowen of the eponymous channel attributes Bitcoin’s tenuous standing to a lack of certainty in the market. In his view, should there be yet another weekly close under $83,000, it would be tantamount to a fake-out and put a further bearish spin on things.
The instability seen in Bitcoin at present is a matter of technicals as much as macroeconomics, Cowen points out, not least the recent correction in the US stock market. The equity side has been weak, with the Dow Jones down 8% and the Russell 2000 11% lower year to date; he considers that a drag on Bitcoin’s price to be reckoned with in the fourth quarter, provided the Fed does not budge on rates and inflation is still running hot.
Then there is the question of whether Bitcoin can put $83,000 behind it and hold that level. If not, the possibility of a more pronounced drop is there, reminiscent of what transpired in 2015 and other cycles. For all that popular sentiment may say, corrections have a way of getting worse, so Cowen counsels having a plan B and being prepared to adapt.
Altcoin Daily: bitcoin could hit $200,000 faster than $100,000 as whales accumulate
Zach Wainwright of Fidelity has put forward the view that Bitcoin may reach $200,000 in short order, even before it gets to $100,000, as the Altcoin Daily host reports. In Wainwright’s estimation, one would do well to see the present pullback as an accumulation opportunity.
The analyst contends that this correction is perhaps the last of its kind ahead of a big rally, and the way to $200,000 could be quicker than expected. There are parallels with earlier post-bottom rallies in the current price action; indeed, from the lows of June 2022, Bitcoin has gained 50%.
Wainwright is not discounting the prospect of considerable price appreciation for Bitcoin, even if returns are expected to wane eventually. He points to the buying spree by some of the larger investors in October, who have put in almost $800 million for BTC, or 90 percent of new supply. The crypto market at large is displaying resilience too: over three months, Bitcoin has gained 27% on gold. And should Bitcoin put $100,000 behind it, the Fidelity expert expects Ethereum to be at $7,500 when the year is done.
The Moon Show: sharp drop below $84,200 raises doubts about further BTC growth
The Moon Show has put to rest any bullish talk in light of Bitcoin’s precipitous slide from $85,000 to the $84,200 area. The analyst is calling for a more cautious approach and emphasizing risk management.
In what was a one-day affair, Bitcoin reached $85,000 only to fall back below $84,200 shortly after. That puts an end to the earlier call for an $87,400 top, as there was no sustained move above $84,200 to justify it.
Acknowledging the misstep, the analyst has little use for the hourly chart now and will be looking at daily and weekly figures. Traders were waiting for the daily chart to give them some confirmation of further gains after the pullback, yet the severity of the decline has put the near-term upside in question. An apology was offered for the poor judgment in the forecast; instead, the analyst urges traders to rely on stop-losses to contain any losses when the market turns.
VirtualBacon: targeting $90,000 by April before new all-time highs for Bitcoin
VirtualBacon’s author puts forward the case for Bitcoin reaching $90,000 in the run-up to April 2024 and from there starting a rally of fresh all-time proportions.
In arriving at this view, the analyst is guided by the two-year moving average of around $89,000, which is regarded as a realistic objective before a more substantial breakout. An outright move to $100,000 is not out of the question, much like the 2019 rally, but the author deems that improbable and cautions about the attendant volatility and risk of correction.
Should one look to break above $100,000, strong headwinds are to be expected given the support at $73,000 (the 200-day MA) and in the $76,000–$78,000 area of the 50-week MA. For now, VirtualBacon sees Bitcoin trading in a $75,000 to $90,000 band until April; once past that point, a new all-time high may be in the offing, in keeping with what technicals and earlier market cycles have shown.
