Over the past days since Thursday, we saw Bitcoin safely trading about the $7000 mark. During last Thursday, Bitcoin surged to over $7K, breaking above the critical 50-days moving average line (marked pink on the following daily chart).
Since then, and together with the bullish wind form Wall Street (3% gains on Friday), Bitcoin topped at $7306 (Bitstamp) as of yesterday. Over the past hours, Bitcoin is having a small correction below $7200. However, the critical area from below is still the MA-50 line – currently around $6940, along with the $7K mark.
From the bullish side, we can mention the massive volume of Thursday’s reversal candle. That was the highest volume day since April 2nd. After gaining over $800 in two days, it’s reasonable to see Bitcoin correcting down.
As of now, the bulls will watch the crucial level of $7400 – $7500. The latter contains the monthly high from ten days ago, along with a mid-term descending trend-line. There is always the fear of a double-top pattern that can quickly turn to a bearish setting.
