  • BTC has found support above its 100-week MA.
  • The price is trading inside a descending wedge.

Looking at the daily chart, we can see that BTC has been trading inside a descending wedge since reaching the aforementioned high on June 26. Bitcoin Descending Wedge Looking closer, BTC has made a triple bottom at $7800 beginning on September 27. This has been accompanied by bullish divergence in both the RSI & MACD.

BItcoin Wedge

To conclude, we are bullish in the short-term, bearish in the medium-term, and extremely bullish in the long-term. The above analysis is the reason for the bullishness in the short-term. The chart below represents the price of BTC in a logarithmic chart since 2011. Bitcoin Final Log chart The vertical lines represent the two halving dates until now, while the third one the projected date for the third halving. Similar to the previous two times, we are expecting the price to consolidate until halving and be at the support line at the date of the event. This is the reason for being bearish in the medium-term. On the other hand, since we are close to the support line, we are expecting the relative bottom to be very close — hence the reason for being extremely bullish in the long-term.
