Bitcoin managed to break above the resistance level above $21,000 and seems poised for further gains. The cryptocurrency records its first week in the green after relentless selling pressure pushed it to a multi-year low of around $17,000.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, Bitcoin (BTC) trades at $21,700 with a 5% and 12% profit in the last 24 hours and 7 days respectively.<\/p>\n

Data from Material Indicators (MI) shows an increase in bid orders for BTC\u2019s price as it moves to $22,000. The cryptocurrency records around $10 million in bid orders at $21,800 and $21,500 alone.<\/p>\n

As seen below, these levels were previously unprotected and were susceptible to further downside. In lower timeframes, it seems as if investors have been forming a liquidity shield for BTC\u2019s price at its current levels.<\/p>\n

The current bullish price action was preceded by an increase in buying pressure from BTC whales. MI data shows these large entities have been buying more Bitcoin since the start of July<\/a> and influenced BTC\u2019s price to the upside.<\/p>\n

The data shows a slight decrease in the buying pressure, which could indicate BTC\u2019s price will return to a consolidation phase. In order to sustain the bullish momentum, analysts from Material Indicators claimed BTC\u2019s price must stay above $20,000 for the next two days.<\/p>\n

In order to extend the bullish momentum, the cryptocurrency must reclaim the 200 Weekly Moving Average (WMA) which stands at $22,560. Analyst Micha\u00ebl Van de Poppe concurs<\/a> on potential price consolidation before any attempt to reclaim higher levels:<\/p>\n

What Could Get In The Way Of A Fresh Bitcoin Rally<\/h2>\n

According to economist Alex Kr\u00fcger, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) is still the most important headwind for BTC\u2019s price. The financial institution has been trying to slow down inflation by hiking interest rates.<\/p>\n

However, the Fed believes any potential negative impact from an interest rate hike or decreasing its balance sheet, Quantitative Tightening (QT), is already priced in. Thus, why the potential for future downside has been potentially reduced, Kr\u00fcger said<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Unless inflation surprises considerably to the upside, the Fed is fine with things as they are, and monetary policy tightening is mostly in the price. QT won’t destroy markets. Major moves require an information shock, which then leads to a shift in equilibrium.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It is a difficult task, which continues to keep him busy today and will most likely continue to keep him busy in the near and long term. In his free time, he enjoys lifting heavy objects, reading, watching movies, and listening to his favorite music. Some of his favorite authors are Walt Whitman, William Faulkner, Allen Ginsberg, James Baldwin, Raymond Carver, Ray Bradbury, George Orwell, Mario Vargas Llosa, Reinaldo Arenas, Rafael Cadenas, and many others. Lately, he has been primarily interested in reading about dystopic societies, a topic that deeply resonates with the crypto industry. Since 2023, he has lived in Spain with his wife. He loves the weather, the food, and the people and their culture. They both expect to travel much more within the country they now call home and beyond its border. He hopes to retire with his wife, maybe in a quiet place near a beach, but most likely in a city close to a library and a university with his kids and, hopefully, grandkids.\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/reynaldo-mrquez-2ab111190\/\",\"https:\/\/x.com\/rl_m\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/wncen.com\/author\/reynaldomarquez\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Why

It is a difficult task, which continues to keep him busy today and will most likely continue to keep him busy in the near and long term. In his free time, he enjoys lifting heavy objects, reading, watching movies, and listening to his favorite music. Some of his favorite authors are Walt Whitman, William Faulkner, Allen Ginsberg, James Baldwin, Raymond Carver, Ray Bradbury, George Orwell, Mario Vargas Llosa, Reinaldo Arenas, Rafael Cadenas, and many others. Lately, he has been primarily interested in reading about dystopic societies, a topic that deeply resonates with the crypto industry. Since 2023, he has lived in Spain with his wife. He loves the weather, the food, and the people and their culture. They both expect to travel much more within the country they now call home and beyond its border. He hopes to retire with his wife, maybe in a quiet place near a beach, but most likely in a city close to a library and a university with his kids and, hopefully, grandkids.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/reynaldo-mrquez-2ab111190\/","https:\/\/x.com\/rl_m"],"url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/author\/reynaldomarquez\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Why Bitcoin Must Meet These Conditions If It Wants To Stay Above $20K","url":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/why-bitcoin-must-meet-these-conditions-if-it-wants-to-stay-above-20k\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/why-bitcoin-must-meet-these-conditions-if-it-wants-to-stay-above-20k\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/bitcoin-12.jpeg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/bitcoin-12.jpeg?fit=1320%2C744"},"articleSection":"Cryptocurrency Market News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Reynaldo Marquez"}],"creator":["Reynaldo Marquez"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["bitcoin","btc","btcusd"],"dateCreated":"2022-07-08T16:54:37Z","datePublished":"2022-07-08T16:54:37Z","dateModified":"2024-06-11T14:21:25Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Why Bitcoin Must Meet These Conditions If It Wants To Stay Above $20K\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/why-bitcoin-must-meet-these-conditions-if-it-wants-to-stay-above-20k\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/why-bitcoin-must-meet-these-conditions-if-it-wants-to-stay-above-20k\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/06\\\/bitcoin-12.jpeg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/06\\\/bitcoin-12.jpeg?fit=1320%2C744\"},\"articleSection\":\"Cryptocurrency Market News\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Reynaldo Marquez\"}],\"creator\":[\"Reynaldo Marquez\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"bitcoin\",\"btc\",\"btcusd\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2022-07-08T16:54:37Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2022-07-08T16:54:37Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-11T14:21:25Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/wncen.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/bitcoin-12.jpeg?fit=1320%2C744","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495196","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/535"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=495196"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495196\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/494367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=495196"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=495196"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=495196"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
