The post Bitcoin Almost Hits $100K Triggering a Christmas Rally: Will it Close the Yearly Trade Above the Range? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Has Bitcoin bull run re-instigated? Will the BTC price rise and form a new ATH before the end of 2024?
The market participants remained vigilant over the crypto markets, specifically the Bitcoin price rally, as they tend to look out for these answers. While the market volatility varied, the star token had failed to gain the required buying pressure. However, the latest rise suggests the bulls tried hard to reclaim the $100K spot but the bears, who seem to have capitulated to these levels, prevented the token from doing so. Now that the token displayed a Christmas rally, the year-end rise is expected to revive a strong rise, marking new highs.
While the BTC price displayed uncertainty, the spot ETFs witnessed a massive sell-off. BlackRock sold over $188 million worth of BTC, which is one of their biggest sell-offs since the start.Besdies, the total sell-offs also marked the peak of over $338 million but the price recovered from $94,000 to $99,000. Regardless of this, BlackRock and Fidelity collectively hold over $50 billion in Bitcoin, which could keep up the bullish hopes over the rally.
The BTC price in the short term suggests the price may be subject to a small pullback as the stochastic RSI has reached the oversold levels. Hence, the levels are about to drop and after a bullish crossover, the DMI levels are close to undergoing a bearish crossover. Therefore, the Bitcoin price is expected to undergo a small pullback and drop below $96,000 in the next couple of days. However, this pullback could be an opportunity to accumulate at the lower range.
The crypto markets are heading towards the end of the year, which usually attracts a good buying volume. However, the volume over the platform remains lower, which suggests the bullish participation remains restrictive at the moment. Hence, a rise in the volume is expected to trigger the volatility, which is much required for a healthy bullish close for the year, probably above $100K.
