For the fourth or fifth day in a row, bulls have taken control of the Bitcoin (BTC) market, pushing the leading cryptocurrency as high as $7,660 just minutes ago, marking a multi-week high. As of the time of writing this, BTC is trading up 3% on the day, actually underperforming Ethereum’s 4%<\/a> and XRP’s jaw-dropping 12%.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Despite this, analysts are becoming certain that a strong continuation to the upside over the coming days is likely. Here’s more on that.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Ready to Surge Higher<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Josh Olszewicz, an analyst at Brave New Coin, recently noted that an inverse head and shoulders chart pattern \u2014 a bullish pattern that is likely to mark a strong bottom for BTC \u2014 is playing out for Bitcoin.<\/a><\/p>\n

He\u00a0remarked<\/a> in a TradingView post outlining his trading idea that should BTC hit $7,525 (and it has), a move to the $8,100 to $8,700 range \u2014 a 7% and 14% rally, respectively \u2014 is likely to play out. As to why the rally will stop there, he cited a confluence of a few key resistances: the 200-day exponential moving average, the daily Ichimoku Cloud, a yearly pivot point, and the weekly 20 moving average.<\/p>\n

Also, a textbook Wyckoff Reaccumulation pattern\u00a0suggests that BTC will break higher and higher in the coming days, in an upward move that will bring the asset back to the high-$7,000s.<\/p>\n

Longer-Term Outlook Positive Too<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On a longer-term basis, Bitcoin appears to be getting bullish too.<\/p>\n

Per previous reports from this very outlet<\/a>, trader CryptoHamster recently noted<\/a> that Bitcoin\u2019s on-balance volume reading<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 an indicator which \u201cuses\u00a0volume<\/em>\u00a0flow to predict changes in stock price\u201d \u2014 is printing a clear falling wedge pattern, a chart pattern marked by falling prices (or in this case, a reading) and a tightening range.<\/p>\n

In this case, the falling wedge seems bullish, with the Bitcoin-related on-balance volume reading rallying, implying imminent continuation to the upside.<\/p>\n
