The Bitcoin market continues to see a lot of sluggish behavior, as we are still in a bullish flag. At this point, Bitcoin is trying to do whatever it can to turn things around, but thit time of year is typically quiet, and this is part of the issue at the moment.
The Bitcoin market has drifted a little bit lower during the trading session on Friday, as we continue to see a lot of questions asked about the uptrend. That being said though, I still believe that we are in the midst of a bullish flag. And at this point in time, we are also basically in the middle of an area that I would consider your trading zone at the moment, with the $110,000 level underneath being massive support and the $120,000 level above being massive resistance. The $110,000 level I believe is a floor in the market at the moment and we also have the 50-day EMA racing higher at about $113,000, and could offer a bit of technical support as well.
So, it all ties together for plenty of support underneath, and I do think that if we drop from here, there will be value hundreds underneath looking to take advantage of cheap Bitcoin as it appears. If we can break above the $120,000 level on a daily close, then it opens up the possibility of a move to the $130,000 level based upon the move and the bullish flag, perhaps even closer to the $133,000 level. Keep in mind that Bitcoin is essentially an ETF on Wall Street now. So, as Wall Street has a lack of volume this time of year typically, it’s not a huge surprise to see that Bitcoin is just simply limping along, waiting for some external reason to start moving.
