Trader: BTC's next target is around $112,000.
Famous trader Skew pointed out that the market is currently in a state of supply and demand balance and emphasized that there are 'passive buyers' supporting the price. Additionally, he noted that there is strong buying and selling around $97,000 on Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange.
Another trader, Roman, analyzed from the daily chart perspective and believes that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has fully reset, indicating that Bitcoin may experience a strong upward trend, with a target price around $112,000.
Famous trader Johnny also stated that Bitcoin has rebounded multiple times around $95,000, showing strong support and is expected to continue rising in the future.
Chart analyst Upadhyay believes that Bitcoin's price has strongly rebounded from the 20-day moving average (approximately $96,133), indicating that bullish momentum remains strong. If it can effectively break through the resistance range of $101,351 to $104,088, it will further confirm the upward trend. At that time, Bitcoin is expected to reach $113,331, or even challenge the $125,000 mark.
However, if the price falls below the 20-day moving average, it may trigger profit-taking sell-offs, causing the price to retreat to around $90,000. Thus, $90,000 is the focal point of contention between bulls and bears and is also an important support level.
Overall, multiple analysts hold an optimistic view on Bitcoin's future trajectory. Although the market may experience some fluctuations in the short term, the overall trend still leans towards bullish.
