In this episode of NewsBTC’s daily technical analysis videos,\u00a0we are looking at the best chance Bitcoin<\/a> and the rest of crypto has had for a bullish week in a long time.<\/p>\n Take a look at the video below:<\/p>\n There continues to be not much movement in crypto, with Bitcoin trading at around $19,500 currently.

Pushing above it turns Bitcoin fully bullish on the daily timeframe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Weekly momentum has also closed bullish for the second week in a row, opening with green momentum strengthening on the LMACD<\/a> histogram. If bulls can close a third week in a row, a new uptrend should materialize. Note how during the last, failed attempt to break out, BTCUSD had weakening momentum and didn\u2019t close beyond three bullish ticks.<\/span><\/p>\n Bitcoin price is also working on a breakout of weekly downtrend resistance.
