Bitcoin Analysis  

Bitcoin’s price closed Tuesday’s daily candle by taking a small step backward [-$907]. BTC’s price continues to struggle to crack $58,323 while also holding that level and successfully closing above that level on the daily time frame – that level is fundamental to market participants on BTC’s 4HR chart.

The BTC/USD 1W chart below from PeterLBrandt allows traders to visualize the strength of Bitcoin and the parabolic curve painted dating back to its December 2018 low.

Bullish bitcoin traders are pointing to this parabolic curve, and the duration of this pattern is further proof that upside is coming for bitcoin before this bull cycle draws to a close.
