Bitcoin price must clear this level before a ‘solid run up to $100,000’After Bitcoin (BTC) claimed its all-time high of above $73,000 in early 2024, most investors have set their target on the $100,000 mark as the next record valuation for the maiden cryptocurrency. Now, a trading expert has come forward, offering a blueprint to push Bitcoin toward this milestone. In particular, the expert, Peter DiCarlo, noted that Bitcoin looks solid to reach $100,000 but needs to breach the $68,000 resistance level to confirm the path to a new record high, he said in an X post on September 28. Bitcoin price analysis chart. Source: TradingView/Peter DiCarlo DiCarlo observed that Bitcoin is currently in a bull flag formation, a classic indicator of bullish momentum, but warned that this pattern has “faked a lot of traders out” in recent months. He noted that the key to breaking through lies in the “bx” indicator, representing a bullish accumulation zone. This bx zone below $68,000 suggests that institutional investors have steadily accumulated Bitcoin. DiCarlo believes Bitcoin is primed for a breakout as long as this bullish accumulation continues. “BTCUSD looking solid for a run up to $100k in the coming months. That said, we need to clear $68K before we confirm! This bull flag has faked a LOT of traders out over the past couple of months,” he said.  Bitcoin’s key fundamentals  Additionally, the analysis highlighted an accumulation zone around $52,000, where institutional buying has been particularly strong. This accumulation provides a solid foundation for Bitcoin’s potential to move higher. As things stand, Bitcoin could build on the current bullish momentum to reclaim the $68,000 mark as the asset prepares for one of the strongest finishes to September. To this end, investors are looking to the ‘Uptober’ phenomenon, where the maiden cryptocurrency tends to surge in October. However, this momentum is not guaranteed, as Bitcoin still has several barriers to clear before having a solid chance of rallying in October. For instance, as reported by Finbold, BTC has notable liquidity to the downside, and the asset needs to clear retail’s long positions before rallying in the coming month. Indeed, Bitcoin has set its target at $70,000 during a period of influx of stablecoin liquidity and a recovery in the crypto market. In this line, a report by 10x Research indicated that ahead of the Federal Reserve interest rate cut, nearly $10 billion in stablecoins were issued, driving market liquidity up. The high volume is key since stablecoins are usually leveraged to shift positions in the crypto market. Bitcoin’s cautious outlook  Amid the prevailing bullish sentiment, crypto trading expert Ali Martinez noted in an X post on September 27 that investors should anticipate a possible price correction. The warning is based on Bitcoin’s TD Sequential indicator, which has signaled a sell on the four-hour chart.  Historically, such signals have been associated with price corrections, and traders may expect some downward pressure on Bitcoin in the short term. With Bitcoin trading at the $65,000 mark, the indicators suggest the asset will likely drop further. Bitcoin price analysis chart.

Bearish Whale Move Suggests Bitcoin Price Uptrend Nearing EndThe Bitcoin (BTC) market may be nearing the end of its current uptrend, according to on-chain analysis from Glassnode. The firm's senior analyst, Checkmate, noted that the BTC Sell Side Risk Ratio is currently at levels that have historically indicated price tops. This indicator measures the ratio of unrealized profit/loss to market capitalization, and a low ratio suggests that investors are holding their BTC with a small profit or loss, indicating low market volatility and a potential equilibrium point. This could be a sign that whales are preparing to sell their BTC, which could lead to a downturn in the price. Of course, the market is always subject to change, and it is impossible to predict with certainty what will happen next. However, the BTC Sell Side Risk Ratio is a valuable tool for identifying potential turning points in the market, and it is worth keeping an eye on as the price of BTC continues to fluctuate.

BTC Technical Analysis: Descending Channel Signals Potential Reversal or BreakdownCurrent Structure: Descending Channel BTC is currently trading at $65,642, positioned within a descending channel. This formation typically signals a consolidation period before a possible trend reversal. Based on the pattern, Bitcoin has been respecting both the upper and lower trendlines, suggesting that the price is narrowing toward a breakout point. Bearish Scenario: Breakdown Toward $50,000 If BTC fails to break above the descending channel, the price will likely see a significant drop toward the $50,000 level. This level corresponds to the lower boundary of the descending channel, where a retest of the long-term trendline could occur. Historically, descending channels often lead to retests of lower trendlines before confirming a breakout. The MA(5) at $60,104 and the MA(50) at $55,426 indicate interim support levels on the way down, but if the price breaks below these moving averages, the next critical support level would be at $50,000. A fall below this level could lead to further bearish pressure, possibly dragging BTC into a deeper correction. Bullish Scenario: Breakout Above $66,260 On the flip side, if BTC breaks above the $66,260 resistance level, which aligns with the upper boundary of the descending channel, it would confirm a bullish breakout.

BTC Technical Analysis: Descending Channel Signals Potential Reversal or Breakdown

Current Structure: Descending Channel
BTC is currently trading at $65,642, positioned within a descending channel. This formation typically signals a consolidation period before a possible trend reversal. Based on the pattern, Bitcoin has been respecting both the upper and lower trendlines, suggesting that the price is narrowing toward a breakout point.
Bearish Scenario: Breakdown Toward $50,000
If BTC fails to break above the descending channel, the price will likely see a significant drop toward the $50,000 level. This level corresponds to the lower boundary of the descending channel, where a retest of the long-term trendline could occur. Historically, descending channels often lead to retests of lower trendlines before confirming a breakout.
The MA(5) at $60,104 and the MA(50) at $55,426 indicate interim support levels on the way down, but if the price breaks below these moving averages, the next critical support level would be at $50,000. A fall below this level could lead to further bearish pressure, possibly dragging BTC into a deeper correction.
Bullish Scenario: Breakout Above $66,260
On the flip side, if BTC breaks above the $66,260 resistance level, which aligns with the upper boundary of the descending channel, it would confirm a bullish breakout. A breakout from this descending channel would typically result in a sharp upward movement, with the next significant resistance level at $73,777. This would signal a potential reversal of the bearish trend.
Volume and Momentum
The recent increase in trading volume, currently at 602.95M, suggests strong interest in BTC at these levels. However, the volume needs to confirm the breakout or breakdown direction. If a breakout occurs, we could expect a surge in volume, pushing BTC higher and confirming the bullish sentiment.
Final Analysis
Based on the descending channel pattern, BTC is currently in a critical moment. If it fails to break above the channel's resistance, a drop toward $50,000 is highly probable. However, a confirmed breakout above $66,260 would invalidate the bearish pattern, setting BTC up for a rally toward $73,777.
Key Levels
Support: $60,104 (MA 5), $55,426 (MA 50), $50,000 (lower channel boundary).Resistance: $66,260 (channel resistance), $73,777 (next major resistance).

3 signs that Bitcoin price is not ready to make a new all-time highBitcoin (BTC) closed at its highest level in two months on Sept. 28 and is currently approaching the $66,000 mark. This movement followed gains in the S&P 500 index, which reached an all-time high on Sept. 26, fueled by robust economic indicators and measures aimed at boosting markets and investor confidence in China.

Bitcoin’s Next Move: Will BTC Break Out Beyond $66K or Stumble?Bitcoin (BTC) is testing the patience of traders as it hovers around the $65,759 level. After several days of consolidation, Bitcoin is poised for a potential breakout, but the question remains: will it be to the upside or the downside? 🚀📉 If you’ve been closely watching the market, you’ve likely noticed that Bitcoin has been trading in a range, bouncing between $65,500 and $66,500 for the last few sessions. The price seems reluctant to break out but is also not collapsing. This consolidation can lead to an explosive move in either direction — so what’s next for BTC? Technical Analysis: Support and Resistance Levels On the 30-minute chart, BTC is currently riding just above the 7-period SMA at $65,755, while the 25-period SMA sits slightly higher at $65,696. These moving averages are offering some short-term support, helping to prop up the price action. Below these, the 99-period SMA at $65,696 is holding as a more solid level of support. On the resistance side, the price has struggled to sustain any moves above $66,000. This psychological level is acting as a key barrier for further upside. If BTC can push past this zone, the next resistance level sits around $66,500. The MACD indicator is showing signs of bullish momentum with the MACD line at 14.60 crossing above the signal line at 11.47, indicating a potential upward move. However, this signal alone isn’t a guarantee of a breakout, especially considering that we are still in a consolidation phase. Volume remains a critical factor in any potential move. With the SMA volume at 12.307K, we haven’t seen any major volume spikes that typically accompany significant price movements. Any substantial increase in volume could act as confirmation for whichever direction Bitcoin chooses to move next. What’s Driving Bitcoin’s Price Action? While the technicals show consolidation, Bitcoin’s price action is also driven by macroeconomic factors and recent news. The ongoing institutional adoption of BTC, alongside reports of potential regulatory changes, have kept the market in a state of flux. Recently, there’s been speculation around Bitcoin ETF approvals, further institutional investments, and developments within the broader crypto ecosystem, including ongoing Ethereum Layer-2 expansions. These are creating a backdrop of cautious optimism among traders. However, fears of inflation and how central banks might respond with interest rate hikes are keeping some buyers sidelined. A hawkish stance from the U.S. Federal Reserve, for example, could lead to liquidity tightening, which might weigh on risk assets like Bitcoin. Trading Strategies: Should You Buy, Sell, or Hold? For short-term traders, the consolidation around $65,500 to $66,500 offers an interesting range to play. If Bitcoin manages to break above the $66,500 level with strong volume, it could signal a push toward the $68,000 mark, where the next major resistance lies. On the flip side, if the price drops below $65,000, this could lead to a retest of $64,000 or even $62,500. One possible strategy for short-term traders would be to set stop-loss orders around $65,000 to minimize downside risk, while looking to capture gains if BTC breaks above $66,500. Tight stop-losses can protect capital during this consolidation phase, while also positioning traders to profit from an anticipated breakout. For long-term investors, these are still relatively favorable price levels to accumulate Bitcoin. While volatility can be nerve-wracking, BTC remains in an overall uptrend, and long-term holders could use dips around $65,000 as opportunities to buy. Given Bitcoin's history of recovering from corrections, those who are in it for the long haul may find these consolidation phases less concerning. Final Thoughts: The Road Ahead for Bitcoin Bitcoin is at a crossroads. The consolidation around $65,500 to $66,500 could be the calm before the storm. Traders and investors alike are waiting for a decisive move — whether it’s a break higher toward $68,000 or a pullback to $64,000, only time will tell. What’s your take?

Ether Hits Three-And-A-Half-Year Low Against BitcoinAccording to Cointelegraph, Ether (ETH) has significantly underperformed Bitcoin (BTC), reaching a three-and-a-half-year low against Bitcoin on September 18, a level last seen in 2021. This development raises questions about whether this low presents a buying opportunity or if Ether will continue to lag behind Bitcoin. Bitcoin has experienced sideways price action for several months, but some analysts predict that its price could break out of this range and reach a new all-time high in the fourth quarter of this year. However, the same optimism is not extended to Ether, which remains far below its lifetime high. Polymarket, a leading prediction market, indicates an 85% probability that Ether will not achieve a new all-time high in 2024. Despite this, there is some hope for Ether bulls. Bitwise Asset Management’s Chief Investment Officer suggested in a September 17 blog post that Ether could be a “potential contrarian bet through the end of the year.” Analyzing Ether’s chart against Bitcoin reveals a symmetrical triangle pattern, indicating indecision between bulls and bears. The bulls are defending the support line, while the bears are strongly defending the resistance line. Both moving averages are sloping down, and the relative strength index (RSI) is near the oversold zone, suggesting that bears are in control. The ETH/BTC pair could drop to the support line, where buyers are expected to step in. If the price rebounds off the support line and breaks above the moving averages, it may extend its stay inside the triangle. A breakout above or below the triangle could signal the next trending move, with a rally above the triangle potentially targeting 0.18 BTC, surpassing the current all-time high of 0.15 BTC. On the daily chart, the ETH/BTC pair has been trading within a descending channel for several months, characterized by lower highs and lower lows. A minor positive for bulls is that the RSI has shown a positive divergence, and the 20-day exponential moving average (0.04 BTC) has started to flatten out, suggesting reduced selling pressure. A break and close above the 50-day simple moving average (0.04 BTC) could signal a move toward the downtrend line, indicating a potential trend change. However, this positive outlook will be invalidated if the price continues to decline and breaks below 0.038 BTC, which could push the pair to the channel’s support line.

📊#BTC Double Bottom Bullish Structure📈 🧠From a weekly perspective, we successfully broke through the inflection point of 65,000, which means that a bull structure with the same cycle has appeared at the weekly level. Therefore, I have reason to believe that the ideal target area of ​​the previous double top short structure cannot be realized. Because we are still in a bullish trend at the monthly level, it is very reasonable to be bullish. âžĄïžFrom a structural point of view, the heaviest resistance area is currently located near 69000-72000. Whether it can directly reach a record high, we still need to continue to observe.

$BTC "Bullish flag" - such a formation is formed by weekly candles. What will it lead to? 🙃 It looks like a consolidation with lower highs and lows before a rapid upward movement with a test of the upper border of the "flag". Now this formation is even on the monthly chart! #BTC is squeezed in the $500 range and changes the color of the daily candle every hour. This is a rare slowdown, the last time I noticed such things was last September. The weekly candles for this September are clearly different from the previous ones - short, dense, without imbalances. Visually - a change in the nature of the movement. Most likely, this will entail a change in the trend. Important points - when going up from the flag, the volumes should increase sharply, with a false breakout, the price fades out after 2-3% from the previous peak (75-76k). But an even more important point! — Everyone sees this formation and expects growth. Will the market maker just go up to please the crowd? Will it change to a wedge? It is very difficult to believe that this structure was formed to warn about growth 🙃 #Bitcoin #btc #binance

BTC Short-Term Holders Fueling Rally, Providing Price SupportCryptoQuant recently analyzed that Bitcoin (BTC) has surged 23% over the past three weeks, rising from $52.5k to $65k. This strong momentum has been partly driven by growing demand for a BTC spot ETF. As a result of this price increase, short-term holders, who hold BTC for less than 155 days, are now in profit. These holders, with a cost basis of $63k, are expected to provide support for the price of BTC. However, there are some concerns about overheating in the futures market. Open interest, which is the total number of outstanding futures contracts, is currently at $19.1B. This marks the seventh time this year that open interest has surpassed $18B. Historically, when open interest has crossed $18B, the price of BTC has declined.
