BTC price holds “crucial” long-term support

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD circling $46,600 Saturday on the back of a clear bounce at long-term support.

The pair had dipped to lows of around $44,300 Friday. This, nonetheless, was short-lived as positive sentiment took control into the Wall Street open.

For Cointelegraph contributor Michaël van de Poppe, with intent to retain newly flipped support confirmed, the odds were on for an attack on $50,000.

“Crucial area held up for Bitcoin, in which continuation upwards seems likely,” he summarized to Twitter followers on the day.

“If we visit the $45k range again, I think it‘s a sign of weakness and we‘ll go $40k area. If we don‘t, then $50k next week might be likely.”

PlanB, the analyst behind the popular stock-to-flow-based Bitcoin price models, meanwhile, noted continued strength in Bitcoin‘s relative strength index (RSI).

As Cointelegraph recently reported, bullish RSI performance had accompanied price squeezes throughout recent weeks.

Reserve Risk, which offers an indication of when to invest in order to guarantee “outsized” returns over time, remained in its target zone this weekend after more than four weeks.

While showing signs of trending up, Reserve Risk hinted that the recent price rises were not the end of the story on higher timeframes.
