Knock Knock… Bitcoin keeps hitting resistance

By Samuel Indyk

Investing.com – The price of Bitcoin edged higher on Friday but continued to find resistance at its downward trendline.

After failing to break above the key resistance level on Wednesday, Bitcoin moved lower over the next two trading days as earnings from Facebook owner Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB) disappointed, leading to the largest one-day sell-off of the Nasdaq since September 2020.

The correlation between Bitcoin and US tech stocks held on Friday with Nasdaq Futures rebounding following Amazon's (NASDAQ:AMZN) earnings after market on Thursday. The e-commerce and cloud computing giant is trading higher by over 12% in pre-market trade as its Amazon Web Services business posted operating profit of over $5 billion. The company also announced it would be upping its Prime subscription fee in the US.

Technical Resistance

 

Despite the bounce in technology stocks, and in Bitcoin itself, the cryptocurrency still failed to leap above the downward trendline that has acted as resistance in recent weeks.

The trendline, which has been visible on the daily chart since Bitcoin hit an all-time high in November, has acted as resistance numerous times since. Bitcoin has touched the line and retreated on three separate occasions this week alone.

A break above the trendline resistance could see Bitcoin push higher and make a move towards the psychological $40,000 threshold.

If Bitcoin again fails to break above the resistance level then support is seen in the $35,000-$36,500 zone. A break below that level and the year-to-date low around $33,000 will be the next major support level before a potential test of $30,000.

    • Bitcoin has reached an unprecedented $104,000, marking a significant moment in its history. The surge is attributed to institutional adoption, such as BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF success, positive geopolitical developments, and the deflationary effects of Bitcoin's halving cycle. These factors underscore Bitcoin’s growing importance as a global store of value and financial tool.   Fractal Bitcoin complements this growth by expanding Bitcoin’s scalability while adhering to its core principles of decentralization and transparency.

    • With Bitcoin finally surpassing the much awaited $100k hallmark, all indication points to the much-awaited bull-run. I attended an X space recently and one of the speakers highlighted that the bull-run has already started when Bitcoin surpassed it previous ATH. He noted that is normal for many people not to notice it since Eth is yet to reclaim Ath but with the like of Sol, BNB, BGB and setting a new all-time high show make it clearer. He highlights that the most surprising token was BGB, which rose from $0.5 to $2.7 and still showing signs of hitting $5. He made few assumptions that made the token achieve that hallmark before swiftly making some bold predictions that once Eth reclaim ATH then we should expect much volatility in the industry . One of the speaker claimed that the bull cycle is always short while the bear cycle is mostly longer. He said that Bitcoin normally set an all time high after swearing in of new US presidential candidate and he predicted that with the new president full support for Crypto we might see the longest bear market in the history. I have seen a lot of predictions that the mother token could hit over $200k in 2025 but what factors could push this.
