Bitcoin (BTC) continues to climb to $ 90,000 in the coming weeks after leveraged traders were “caught”.

In its latest market update on November 12th, the Decentrader exchange highlighted the prevailing opinion on BTC price developments.

Update: Highest time frame “still optimistic”

Although Bitcoin lost $ 4,000 on just one Wednesday and has been trending sideways since then, Bitcoin remains nothing but bearish, argue many analysts.

Because short-term conditions penalize long-term traders with leverage, funding rates remain high, but stock sellers can be in more pain before a rebound begins.

Decentrader believes that if this happens, an all-time high will occur.

“We remain optimistic about the high timeframes and continue to expect the price to rebound in line with the 1,618 Fib retracement to the USD 85,000-90,000 range in the coming weeks,” the update said.

An accompanying chart shows the target as well as nearby support levels closest centered around the $ 59,000 area, which some separate studies also believe could serve as a strong line in the sand for bulls.

“If we compare this cycle from the most recent halving to previous cycles, we can see that we have not seen a final parabolic rally,” Decentrader continued.

Although Bitcoin isn’t particularly like the 2013 or 2017 cops, it is still in the process of laying the groundwork for a “parabolic bull run”.

“When we stack cycles in this way, we can see that the current cycle doesn’t exactly match either of the previous two cycles, but is actually a combination of the two. The update reads with potentially more subdued top 2 issuers compared to 2013 and less consistent compared to 2017.

“As we attempt to rebound from the all-time high from May this year, this opens the prospect of a potential parabolic bull run like we saw in the late stages of the bull cycle.

Taproot makes ETF decision on Sunday

The next few days could be decisive.

On Sunday, not only was the final decision whether the first US exchange-traded fund application with spot prices would be approved, but also the blocking of Bitcoin’s taproot soft fork.

While the short-term effects of an ETF rejection could have an impact on BTC / USD, 2017 has proven that major protocol upgrades have a positive impact.

Segregated Witness (“SegWit”) kicked off four months from its annual high of $ 20,000, and Taproot represents the largest upgrade since then.

“The last time Bitcoin had such a big upgrade was the Segwit upgrade in August 2017. At that time, Bitcoin was priced at $ 4,000, then went up to almost $ 20,000 over the next four months.” , commented Decentrader.

“Will we see a similar rally this time? Given the current upward trend in many macro indicators and the rush of new money in cryptocurrencies, this is certainly possible. ”
