Bitcoin (BTC) price has risen above the moving averages and regained the psychological price level of $40,000. The cryptocurrency has reached a high of $41,115 at the time of writing.
Bitcoin (BTC) price long-term forecast: bullish
All indications are that Bitcoin will continue to rise to retest the upper resistance of $45,000. Currently, the largest cryptocurrency is approaching an overbought area of the market. This will lead to a decline in the cryptocurrency. However, in a market with a strong trend, an overbought condition may not last and the cryptocurrency may continue its uptrend. BTC/USD is capable of recovering to the psychological price level of $50,000 if buyers overcome the resistance at $45,000.
However, if the bulls fail to overcome the overarching $45,000 resistance, BTC/USD will trade between $37,500 and $45,400.
