Can Bitcoin Price Reach $90K After Its Latest Breakout

The BTC price surged to $86,041 on Tuesday, extending its sharp breakout from the $80,000 region.

Bitcoin price remains above $84,000, which could provide immediate support during a potential pullback.

The initial upside target is at $88,000, where the price of Bitcoin can face new selling pressures.

A four-hour close above this resistance may result in a way to the psychological target of $90,000.

Additional the Bitcoin long-term prediction may extend to $92,500 which is the next potential extension point.

However, failure to hold $84,000 could expose support near $82,500.

A deeper correction could then place the important $80,000 level back in focus.

The four-hour Relative Strength Index stands at 75.60, placing Bitcoin within overbought territory.

This reading is a confirmation of strong momentum but also leads to the likelihood of consolidation or short-term profit-taking.

MACD line is at 1,900.01 and is still above the signal line 1,609.53.
