With the positive trend breakout pattern generated on January 12, 2023, the outlook for BTC showcases the confidence of buyers and technical indicators. RSI has moved way beyond overbought zones, while MACD has created a huge gaping difference.

The breakout trend was supported by the positive reaction of traders from the 100 EMA curve, with the combination of a buying spree. Even with the immediate resistance of $21,500 facing trouble, BTC shows positive confidence in the future. Although there have been instances of selling at 200 EMA, the red candlesticks remain in close vicinity to the 200 EMA curve. 

On a weekly candlestick pattern, the price action of the second week of January carries a high resemblance to the red candle of the second week of November. Since the resistance of $21,500 has weighted heavier during the bearish cycle, a positive breakout is expected from the current scenario. On the further up move, resistance action would also be visible at the $25,000 and $30,000 marks.
