Just before the 2016 halving and during the event, btc was trading at $650. Markets then pulled back to a subsequent low of $474 before recovering to $20,000 in December 2017.
Can bitcoin soar again in the coming months after such a significant drop?
bitcoin price will continue to rise
bitcoin price continued to fall in August, dropping from a high of $67,236 within a descending channel pattern, data from GeckoTerminal shows.
Yesterday, the bitcoin price fell below the descending channel to $49,800. However, the price seems to be bouncing from below the lower boundary of the channel and is now trading within its upper boundary.
The bullish stance is evident as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) bounced from the oversold level to break above the mid-50 level and now stands at 55, indicating that buyers have the upper hand.
Additionally, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is also bullish as it rises towards the neutral line with the aim of breaking above it. The blue MACD line also crosses above the orange signal line, representing a bullish crossover.
bitcoin Price Prediction
The rising RSI and the formation of a bullish crossover by the MACD create bullish prospects for optimistic investors, who might increase their buying positions.
If the buying continues, bitcoin price could surge above the descending channel as bulls target the $65,500 resistance.
Meanwhile, btc is still trading below the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages (SMA), which shows that btc price could still fall. If this happens, the bears could take control at this level, which could push bitcoin price to the next support zone of $49,693.
As the price of bitcoin rises, funds are being pumped into the P2E project PlayDoge (PLAY), which has skyrocketed to nearly $6 million in funds raised in its pre-sale.
