Bitcoin’s rally since the last 3 days has been quite epic. The cryptocurrency denounced the bearish tempo, consolidating away from the $6,800 region to reclaim its position above $7,000, and now Bitcoin’s fractal is closer to attaining $8,000 than going below $7K.

Bitcoin: EMA100 As Resistance, Now Support
Reflecting on Bitcoin’s move in 2019, Alanmaster said BTC conquered EMA100 in April and it was succeeded by a very strong bullish rally.
Back then, Bitcoin maintained the tempo till June – July 2019 before a retracement was witnessed and BTC afterward tested all conquered levels as support.
Alanmaster, nevertheless, said Bitcoin bounces off each time a level is hit down the chart. The analyst expressed that the price of Bitcoin bounced from $9,500 low to $11,700 in late July when the EMA10 was hit.
Similarly, when the EMA50 was hit in late September, a price rebound towards the ceiling was seen in October.
Alanmaster furthered that now that the EMA100 has been hit, we are expecting a bounce off the dip, and such is gradually playing out.
Bitcoin Weekly EMA10 vs EMA50 Bearish Cross
Using another indicator, Alanmaster said Bitcoin has made a bearish cross. The TradingView analyst said the EMA10 line has crossed down the EMA50 line, indicating a “bearish cross.”
Alanmaster advanced that each time such cross is witnessed, Bitcoin price surges up significantly. Referencing the history, the analyst said in November 2014, Bitcoin jumped by 72% from $275 low to $475 high.
Similarly, Bitcoin spiked by 48% in July 2018 and by 31% – 51% in December 2019.
