Bulls See Bullish Flags And Futures
Technical analysers are naturally interested people. Speaking in a language of charts, patterns, and indicators, they interpret the mysterious market moves. One such signal, the bullish flag pattern, has some analysts—like Gert van Lagen—cautiously hopeful.
[2D] – The handle of the 3Y+ Cup with Handle itself qualifies as a bullflag targeting $127k. Price clearly has broken out of and successfully retested the flag for support. is ready for the next leg up 📈 Invalidation setup: close below$60k — Gert van Lagen (@GertvanLagen)
Based on recent price movement, this trend points to a possible price rise; Bitcoin is consolidating inside a particular range before a possible breakthrough.
Future investors seem to be dominated in buying enthusiasm, so fueling the optimistic fire. Futures contracts let investors gamble on the future value of an asset; in this case, many seem to be betting on the increase of Bitcoin. This could lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy since rising prices draw even more customers by driving purchase.
A Worrying Trend?
Concurrent with this, on-chain data—which follows blockchain movement—showcases a worrying tendency. Deposits to exchanges have surged, suggesting investors are shifting their Bitcoin to sites where it might be readily sold. This points to a possible selling frenzy just around the corner, which would cause the price to be pressured down.
Bitcoin Short-Term Outlook
Bitcoin’s near future seems dangerously poised on a tightrope. Currently bearish technical indicators including RSI, CMF, and MACD, which gauge momentum and investor strength, point to ongoing price drop.
For the bulls, there is a bright future though. Analysers estimate an initial advance to $67,650 if Bitcoin can buck the bearish indications and become positive. The balance between purchasing pressure and any possible selling frenzy will probably determine this transient price fluctuation.
