Bitcoin Price Prediction: Following a notable upsurge in January End, the Bitcoin price was relatively stable through this week. The daily candles with short bodies and longer ones reflect uncertainty and initiation from bulls and bears. However, a look at a lower time frame projects this consolidation as the formation of a bullish pennant pattern. Here’s how this pattern may influence the near future growth of BTC.
According to insights from the renowned analyst @planB, Bitcoin’s 200-week moving average (WMA) currently stands at $31,000, serving as a critical benchmark for the cryptocurrency’s price movements. Historically, during accumulation phases (marked in blue) and bull markets (indicated by orange/red), Bitcoin’s price has never fallen below its 200 WMA, suggesting that $31,000 could represent a solid floor price for Bitcoin.
This observation leads to the speculation that Bitcoin may not drop to or below $31,000 again. Furthermore, the analyst notes that the 200WMA is on an upward trajectory, reinforcing the idea that Bitcoin’s value could be poised for sustained growth.
After the initial sell-off post-ETF decision subsided, Bitcoin found its footing again, rebounding strongly from $38,500. This recovery propelled the digital currency upward by nearly 14%, reaching a high of $43,900. Yet, the emergence of overhead supply pressure has since directed the price into a sideways movement, heralding a phase of consolidation after the rally.
This phase is encapsulated within a pennant pattern on the daily chart, characterized by converging trendlines. At the moment, BTC is priced at $42,957, showing a modest daily decrease of 0.2%. A breakout from the pennant pattern’s resistance could signify the continuation of the recovery rally, creating opportunities for new market entries.
Should this breakout materialize, the trajectory for Bitcoin’s price could see it breaking above the $45,000 threshold, aiming for a target of $48,000 thereafter.
