Similarly, the shorter-term two-hour chart does not show clear weakness, even if the rally has become parabolic. While the RSI and MACD are oversold, neither has generated a bearish divergence, allowing for the possibility that the upward movement will continue.

Wave Count

As for the wave count, it is likely that BTC began a bullish impulse on Sept  7, and is currently in the fifth-and-final wave of this formation (shown in orange below). BTC has already reached two important Fib resistances, the 4.61 Fib of wave 1 and the 0.618 Fib of waves 1-3, which means that a top could be near. These resistances also coincide with the long-term $16,100 resistance outlined in the first section. Despite this, there is no weakness found in technical indicators.
