Can Bitcoin continue to rise?

After several attempts to break the $ 44,000 mark, Bitcoin is currently trading at $ 44,312 amid growing disagreements over whether or not the price bottomed out.

Data from TradingView showed the $ 44,000 mark acted as local resistance on Thursday after predictions were followed that the price could soon return to $ 46,000.

Bitcoin stayed much higher after yesterday’s US inflation data, but now is not the time for some to get overconfident.

“It feels like Bitcoin is starting to hit a less sustainable (local) high, even though demand is diffusing beyond a few key resistance levels. Some bitcoin bulls may show up and clear some levels, but it takes a whole herd to clear them all out. Can reduce the risk a little, ”commented the Twitter account Material Indicators recently.

Key indicators that highlighted order book throughput on Wednesday provided a good opportunity to “minimize risk” and warned of a possible crash.

On the contrary, others believe that the “squeeze” could eventually drive the Bitcoin price up and punish the short traders who joined later.

“Given that the funding rate for perpetual contracts is getting more and more negative as prices go up, it looks like a real wave of liquidations is underway.”

Meanwhile, popular trader Crypto Ed is showing optimism that significantly lower levels will be gone forever.

After uploading a snapshot of his prediction chart, he argued that if BTC rises up during the day, the period will be set to form a higher bottom during a firmer recovery.

“The feeling that the price has bottomed out becomes stronger when you look at the BTC chart. I want to see more confirmation, but if there is a fifth move today I will be very excited! “

How long can relief last?

Observe Funding rate There was hardly any change on the stock exchanges, with neutral to negative values ​​dominating.

Such behavior is in contrast to the last few weeks, in which spot prices fell with positive financing rates.
