Bitcoin Just Surged to $9,100: Here’s Why Analysts Expect Price to Explode Further
#crypto #bitcoin
Over the past two hours, Bitcoin (BTC) has started to break out of a consolidation pattern that has trapped the price of the cryptocurrency in the high-$8,000s for some two days. In fact, just minutes ago as of the time of writing this article, the leading crypto asset tapped $9,120, surging higher as the weekly candle’s close approaches, boding well for bulls. While Bitcoin has retraced slightly since then, returning to settle around $9,000, analysts say that this breakout, which has allowed BTC’s price to reach a multi-month high, is a precursor to even more gains in the coming days.

If BTC manages to hold above this key resistance on a weekly basis when the candle closes on Sunday night, it will indicate that there is a macro reversal on the horizon, one that will bring BTC back to the $14,000 high seen last year and potentially beyond, especially with the upcoming halving. $BTC Critical level at higher TFs, will try my chances with a short if it closes below this range at 4H – bulls have held it well so far with 2 touches yet no break therefore I'm not confident enough in getting in a position now. Flat, caution for bulls if they lose support. pic.twitter.com/Bs7YNf0HgT — CryptoDude (@cryptodude999) January 19, 2020 On a shorter-term time frame, trader CryptoBirb noted that this latest surge has allowed Bitcoin to break above a flat channel that BTC has traded in for nearly a week now, which has a low of $8,555 and a high of $9,000. He expects a breakout of the channel to bring Bitcoin 4% higher from where it is now to $9,400. Prepared another $btc map for ya
