Finally, trader and analyst Peter Brandt was bullish, but urged caution, writing on X, When is a breakout really a breakout? Bitcoin bulls should be excited – but there are rules to determine breakouts.
Diagonal patterns with slanted boundary lines are difficult to trade because the nicking of a boundary line — while exciting to bulls — does NOT represent a breakout
To be considered a “for real” breakout, price on the daily chart MUST close above 76,000 (ATR close above Mar high) and be confirmed on a Sunday evening at midnight UTC
Looking at a weekly chart, this advance has only nicked important chart points
Lots of work still needs to be done. Bitcoin bulls, be excited, but don’t be dogmatic.”
