Bitcoin Price Prediction: BTC/USD Ready for A Cross Above $171k

The Bitcoin price is crossing above the 9-day and 21-day moving averages, any further bullish movement could locate the potential resistance levels at $21,000, $23,000, and $25,000. Normally, when new uptrends are coming up, traders may use the moving averages to gauge the strength of the trend. Nevertheless, if BTC/USD soars above the upper boundary of the channel, it could be a sign of sustainability and could result in a bullish continuation.

Additionally, if the Bitcoin price fails to move up; traders may see a price cut towards the lower boundary of the channel, and a further low could bring the price to the support levels at $13,000, $11,000, and $9,000 respectively. But as it stands, the Bitcoin price is likely to rise as the technical indicator Relative Strength Index (14) moves to cross above the 50-level.

BTC/USD Medium-term Trend: Ranging (4H Chart)

According to the 4-hour chart, the market is following a sideways movement above the 9-day and 21-day moving averages as the bulls are coming back into the market to push the king coin above the upper boundary of the channel. If not, the support level of $16,600 and below may come into play.

However, if the bulls push the market above the channel, traders may expect a retest of the $17,000 resistance level, and breaking this level could hit the resistance level of $17,200 and above. Meanwhile, the technical indicator Relative Strength Index (14) nosedives below the 70-level, suggesting a bearish signal.
