View Bitcoin’s dominance rate has hit 8-month highs, suggesting investor confidence in the recent price rally. A test of highs above $6,500 seen in November last year now seems likely. Such a move, however, may be preceded by a pullback to the 10-day moving average at $5,633 if the immediate resistance zone of $6,055–$6,100 remains

Binance, the biggest crypto exchange by volume, was hacked on Tuesday. The hacker took $40 million or 7000 BTC. Binance had a chance to recover these funds. They could cut a deal with the majority hashpower miners. The miners would reverse the chain and gain a share of the stolen money. Binance this time decided not

View Bitcoin’s price hit fresh six-month high earlier today, further strengthening the case for a rally to $6,500 (100-week moving average). BTC may witness a pullback to levels near $6,100 before rising toward that level, though, according to the hourly chart. A bull flag breakout on the total market capitalization chart for all other cryptos,

A technical indicator used to identify the momentum behind asset prices is registering its highest value since the beginning of 2018 when applied to bitcoin, a possible positive sign for the cryptocurrency’s market.  The relative strength index (RSI) takes into account the speed and change in price movements, i.e. momentum, to reveal when the trend

View With prices holding above Tuesday’s low of $5,687, bitcoin remains on track for a break above $6,000. Acceptance below $5,687 would validate the bullish exhaustion signaled by a “shooting star” candle that formed Tuesday and could yield a deeper drop to the 30-day moving average (MA), currently at $5,333. The case for a deeper

View Bitcoin’s quick recovery from levels below the former resistance-turned-support of $5,627 (April 23 high) seen on Monday, coupled with a break above the stiff resistance at $5,780 (June 2018 bottom) seen today, indicate fairly strong bullish sentiment. BTC looks set to breach the psychological hurdle of $6,000, as suggested by April’s bullish close, and

According to Bloomberg, Fidelity Investments is on the verge of buying and selling Bitcoin (BTC). Earlier this year, the firm began a custody service to store Bitcoin, but now it will evolve to trading. Fidelity Investments Embraces Bitcoin Fidelity is one of the largest asset managers in the world. Its newly-formed arm—Fidelity Digital Assets—will be

View The June 2018 low of $5,780 is proving a tough nut to crack, as expected. BTC has failed to close above that level for three days in a row, indicating a price pullback may be needed to fuel a sustained move to $6,000. BTC looks to be creating a double-top bearish reversal pattern with

View Bitcoin has printed a 5.5-month high of $5,714 today, reinforcing the bullish view put forward by the cryptocurrency’s recent bounce from the 30-day moving average and April’s bullish close above the 21-month exponential moving average. BTC appears on track to test the psychological resistance of $6,000 soon. A UTC close below the 30-day MA

Another Fundstrat prediction has emerged. This time there’s no messing about; the firm predicts that Bitcoin will hit $20,000 USD next year. You can bet investors are sitting up. Fundstrat has made calls that have come true in the past, so should we listen this time around? Fundstrat Prediction The most recent prediction the research

With gold on the defensive and down roughly 6 percent since mid-February, bitcoin may continue to shine brightly in the near future. After all, experts have found the two assets to be inversely correlated. The 90-day correlation coefficient between bitcoin and gold –  a statistical measure of linear interdependence between the two variables – is

View Bitcoin is looking north, having closed above the 21-month exponential moving average (EMA) on April 30. Forcing a quick rally to $6,000, however, may be difficult for the bulls, as a number of key resistance levels are lined up in the $5,400–$5,900 range. The short-term outlook will remain bullish as long as the price

View Bitcoin activated twin bullish cues with a 28 percent gain in April: a falling channel breakout on the monthly chart and a close above the 21-month exponential moving average (EMA). Prices have again bounced from the historically strong 30-day moving average support, currently at $5,184. This, coupled with the bullish developments on the monthly

Bitcoin is looking south, as per the bearish divergence of the 14-day relative strength index and other short-term technical indicators. A deeper pullback to levels below $5,000, however, would remain elusive if the 30-day moving average (MA), currently at $5,107 holds ground. That average repeatedly limited losses in March. A rebound from the 30-day MA

View Bitcoin fell more than 1 percent yesterday, confirming a bearish divergence of the 14-day relative strength index, an early sign of bearish reversal. BTC risks falling to levels below $5,000 in the next few days. A strong bounce from the crucial 30-day moving average (MA), currently at $4,969, would revive the short-term bullish outlook.

The cryptomarket is rallying today from the emergence of a Bitcoin golden cross. Now, the majority of the top ten cryptocurrencies by market cap are in the green according to CoinMarketCap. Bitcoin Golden Cross Leading the rally with a 5% gain at the time of writing is Bitcoin (BTC). The current price of $5,599 USD

View Bitcoin’s daily chart is reporting a “golden crossover” – a bull cross of the 50- and 200-day moving averages – for the first time since October 2015. The crossover represents a long-term bearish-to-bullish trend change. A convincing close today above $5,466 (April 10 high) would establish another bullish higher high and boost the prospects

If you want to buy things on Amazon using Bitcoin, you now can. All you need is the Bitcoin lightning network and crypto payment processing startup Moon. In time, the service will extend to many e-commerce sites also, not just Amazon. Let’s check this out. Moon Payment Processing The startup announced today that any lightning-enabled wallet can

View Bitcoin’s rally from April 2 lows below $4,200 has stalled near the three-day chart’s 100-candle moving average (MA), currently at $5,238. A three-day close (UTC) above that MA level could invite buying pressure, leading to a sustained move higher toward $5,500 and more. That bullish close, however, looks unlikely in the short-term, as the

Bitcoin’s out-of-the-blue bounce over the $5,000 mark this month has prompted some predictable pontificating from price-obsessed people within and outside the cryptocurrency community. Investors who are long-cryptocurrencies have gleefully pronounced that the Crypto Winter, which began when bitcoin’s bubble burst at the end of 2017, is now mercifully over. The most optimistic are forecasting a

Cryptocurrency investment is on the rise right now, especially due to the recent Bitcoin uptick. BTC’s recent climb attracted Chinese investors, but they’re paying a premium price because they have to pay extra to purchase over the counter. China previously banned cryptocurrency exchanges from operating within its borders and also banned crypto trading. However, Chinese

View Bitcoin closed the first quarter of 2017 with 10.91 percent gains – the biggest quarterly gain since the fourth quarter of 2017. While bearish exhaustion is evident, a bullish reversal above $4,236 still remains elusive. A sustained break above that level may not happen in the next few months, as the price seems to

View Bitcoin’s quick drop from a 4.5-month high of $5,345 to levels below $5,000 validates the extremely overbought readings on the 14-day relative strength index. BTC could consolidate around $5,000 with a negative bias over the next day or two. A pullback back to key support levels at $4,672 and $4,565 (200-hour MA) can’t be

The cryptocurrency market sprang back to life with bitcoin’s surge to 4.5-month highs yesterday. But why? The leading cryptocurrency by market value jumped nearly $1,000 to $5,080 in a sixty-minute window early on Tuesday, confirming a transition from a bear market to a bull market. While the bullish breakout is a welcome development following a

View With bitcoin’s move today to 4.5-month highs near $5,080, the transition from bear to bull market appears done and dusted. The trend change would gain credence, though, if and when BTC finds acceptance above the former support-turned-resistance of the 21-month exponential moving average (EMA), currently at $5,200. The cryptocurrency is looking overbought as per

The first quarter of 2019 was a breath of fresh air for the cryptocurrency market, having recorded its first quarterly increase in overall network valuations since the fourth quarter of 2017. Interestingly, however, bitcoin is among the least significant price gainers so far this year while still flashing a noteworthy Q1 increase of 10 percent.

View Bitcoin’s current trading range of $3,920–$4,055 could be breached to the downside, as last week’s doji candle created at the key 21- week moving average resistance is signaling bullish exhaustion. A downside break of the trading range, if confirmed, could yield a sell-off toward the support levels lined up at $3,775 and $3,658. On the

Believe it or not, there are more ways to anticipate the future market value of bitcoin than through practicing technical analysis or by observing network activity developments. While valuable in their own right, thanks to researchers Willy Woo and David Puell, several new experimental bitcoin valuation metrics were released in February that combine the two

View Bitcoin jumped to a five-week high of $4,100 earlier today, reinforcing the bullish view put forward by the recent bounce from the crucial 30-day moving average support. That, coupled with the flag breakout on the 4-hour chart, indicates scope for a re-test of $4,190 (February high). The short-term bullish case would weaken if prices

View Bitcoin created a bullish “engulfing candle” last month, confirming seller exhaustion. A bullish reversal, however, would only be confirmed if price closes above $4,190 (high of the engulfing candle) on March 31. A bullish monthly close would open the doors to $5,000, although gains may be hampered by the crucial 21-week moving average, which is
