Analysts eyeing a test and holding in the $39,600 area are equally optimistic.

“Well I think people are starting to feel FOMO,” commented trader Michaël van de Poppe.

Amid the confusing near-term environment, many have taken the opportunity to reiterate higher price targets on the time frame.

Twitter user AN₿ESSA excitedly wrote:

Shakeout under $38.5K in near perfect case HTF: Remember the target medium term ~$48K, which coincides with 360 MA daily.

LTF: After the LTF prediction completes perfectly, pump out the breakout. Rising wedge is recovering and is currently trading at resistance. Next could be a pullback to flip the S/R or a breakout.”

The popular Twitter account “Light” meanwhile talks about the sustainability of the move.

“I suspect there’s still $40,000 spot stock for sale. What was about to sell was sold in a two-month downtrend capped by a macro panic.

Also suspect buyers in the $30,000 range bought to sell here. Similar to $6,000 in 2019.”
