Bitcoin Price Prediction: Nurturing New Bullish Outlook

Bitcoin touched $70,000 after recovering from support at $66,000. A correction followed immediately allowing bulls to collect more liquidity at $67,000. This temporary downturn may have been caused by profit-taking and the lack of confidence among investors for a breakout above $70,000.

With the immediate support provided by the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) in purple on the chart, bulls have another chance to close the gap to $70,000.

A recently presented buy signal from the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator backs a potential bullish outcome later this week. Traders will regain confidence if the blue MACD line holds above the orange signal line.

The next move above the 20-day EMA in blue, close to the previous day’s open could strengthen the bullish grip further.

Based on the Bitcoin price prediction carried out by a qualified team of analysts at CoinGape, other key milestones to look forward to are the breakout above $70,000 and the psychological hurdle at $72,000. Beating these two resistance levels successfully could launch Bitcoin into the next bull run eyeing $80,000 in the medium-term and $100,000 by year-end.
