According to recent insights, Bitcoin (BTC) seems to be on the verge of another rally, which suggests the potential for short-term upward momentum. At the heart of this discussion is the Coinbase Premium Index, a critical indicator analyzed in one hour by CryptoQuant analyst Yonsei Dent. This metric and specific moving average trends have highlighted conditions that could pave the way for Bitcoin to regain its upward trajectory. Related Reading: Is Bitcoin $100,000 Goal In Jeopardy? Options Market Show Increased Downside Protection Upward Move On The Horizon The Coinbase Premium Index measures the price gap between Bitcoin on Coinbase and other exchanges, offering a glimpse into market sentiment and institutional demand. Dent’s analysis zeroes in on the daily (24-hour) and weekly (168-hour) moving averages. Historical data indicates that significant Bitcoin price movements tend to occur when the daily average decisively crosses above the weekly average—a pattern commonly called a “golden cross.” According to Dent’s findings, the weekly moving average has recently transitioned from a negative slope to a positive one, setting the stage for a potential golden cross. This shift is significant, as previous instances of a positive slope combined with a golden cross have been followed by pronounced price increases. Additionally, Bitcoin is forming higher lows, a bullish signal, while also shaping a converging triangle pattern. If demand levels rise adequately, these technical patterns could signal the beginning of a renewed uptrend. While these indicators point to optimism, the CryptoQuant analyst emphasizes the importance of sustained demand. The analyst mentioned that historical patterns suggest that once this sufficient demand materializes, Bitcoin often experiences strong upward momentum, potentially attracting retail and institutional investors back into the market. Technical Outlook On Bitcoin Bitcoin is trading at $96,216, reflecting a 0.3% increase in the past day and a 1.3% rise over the past week. Amid this price activity, a report from another CryptoQuant analyst Burak Kesmeci, highlights notable behavior among US investors, who seem to be taking advantage of even minor dips in BTC’s value.
