BTC price looks for upside signal
On the daily chart, after a short-term consolidation that extends from BTC gave a bullish breakout. The price retest of the resistance, which earlier acted as a resistance. The trading volume supported the breakout. An above-average volume upon the breakout candlestick indicates a bullish sign.
Now, the question is how long the price could leap from the current level. As the bulls manage the previous session’s low, BTC can scale up to $23,300. This also coincides with the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
If the price moves decisively above the mentioned moving average, the next target would be the high of 13-June at $26,951.
