Technical Indicators Still Point To Uptrend
He highlighted key indicators. He noted that although the RSI dropped from 76 down to 63, it is still above 50. This indicates that the market remains in an upward trend.
It appears that traditional investors, who have become more involved with Bitcoin ETFs in recent years, are hesitant to push RSI above 70-75. They tend to sell if the asset appears overbought.
Fibonacci Analysis suggests higher price targets
The Fibonacci analysis helps to understand Bitcoin’s price trajectory. On the daily chart, the key levels include: 1.618 extension ($105,218); 2.618 extension ($112,559); 3.618 extension ($119,900); and 4.236 extensions ($124,436).
Key Levels for Bitcoin Bullish reversal
BTC must reclaim $93,000 to re-establish a bullish trend. This level has been a recent resistance. If you break above this level, you could move towards $100,000, which is the 1.618 Fibonacci Extension.
If current levels are not maintained, the price could drop to $74,000 in 2 years. This level has historically acted as a strong floor of support.
The On-Balance volume (OBV), however, shows a significant decline in Bitcoin (BTC) inflows. This indicates that investors are cautious.
