Popular Analyst Claims Bitcoin Must Break Above This Level Or Risk Going Downhill
After opening the month of October trading as high as $10,923,
Bitcoin has dropped and has since been in consolidation between $10,500 and $10,600. Volatility has reduced significantly since then as the coin has been in consolidation and the price range has been tightening. This is however about to change. An analyst and crypto trader, Josh Rager says that volatility is about to return and Bitcoin may be breaking soon, but in which direction? According to the analyst, a break above the price range of $10,900 to $11,150 will ensure that the price goes upward in a continuing bullish trend. Otherwise, a downward movement below $10,000
may be imminent.
“Volatility building up. Compression continues for Bitcoin with a potential break coming this week. If Bitcoin can’t break above the zone above ($10,900 to $11,150) on the next impulsive move then Bitcoin likely continues to the downside sub $10k, IMO,”
Bitcoin has managed to stay above the $10,000 level for 70 days in a row now which is a record period that the coin has stayed above this level for so long. According to cryptocurrency youtube channel Altcoin Daily, this is an indication that Bitcoin’s bullish trend remains intact despite the uneventful market conditions as the coin is gaining more popularity in countries such as Venezuela. Another analyst Timothy Peterson had predicted that Bitcoin price would soon stop going below $10,000. Although the digital asset dipped below this price momentarily during the wild price movements that preceded the current consolidation, the 70 days straight above the level could be an indication that Bitcoin has indeed conquered the $10k race.
If this is the case, Bitcoin may be breaking out within the range to ensure its upward movement when it finally does. Worthy of note is the fact that Bitcoin had gone up past $10,700 yesterday for the first time since 1 October. If the upward movement continues, this may be the return of volatility that Rager refers to, and may bring more exciting days than we currently have seen. Meanwhile, altcoins have also followed Bitcoin’s consolidation with most of the top ten in the red for the last seven days. With Bitcoin breaking upward, they may also follow suit or get affected negatively as it usually happens.
