Key Takeaways
Nvidia, the largest company in the U.S., beat its expected earnings yesterday, causing the NVDA stock price to surge.
Shortly afterward, the rest of the crypto market followed suit, led by Bitcoin (BTC), whose price reclaimed the $90,000 level it had previously lost.
After the relief bounce, the main question is whether the upward movement will continue in the long term, or if Bitcoin will resume its bearish trend.
Let’s examine the charts to determine why Bitcoin is rising and what lies ahead.
The Bitcoin price fell to a low of $88,497 yesterday before bouncing (green icon).
Bitcoin’s bounce coincided with Nvidia’s earnings call, during which the company reported higher-than-expected earnings, triggering a broader rebound in the crypto market.

While the BTC price increased by nearly 4%, it failed to break out from its primary diagonal resistance, which has remained in place for almost a week.
Until it does, the short-term bounce is likely a relief rally that will not take the price higher, but will create a lower high before another decline.
The daily chart corroborates these findings, since it shows no immediate signs of a market bottom.
The price of Bitcoin has fallen under a diagonal resistance trend line (dashed) since the all-time high on Oct. 6.

Not only is the Bitcoin price still away from its main support of $85,700, but there are no bullish signs at all.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) are both falling, and neither has generated any bullish divergences.
Well-known analyst Benjamin Cowen believes that the bear market will persist as long as the price of Bitcoin remains below its 50-week Moving Average (MA), which is currently at $102,000.
Besides the crash below the MA, Bitcoin’s chart shows several long-term bearish signals that have previously led to a sustained bear market.
More specifically, the previous time a Bitcoin price decrease was accompanied by an RSI and MACD drop below 50 and 0, respectively, the Bitcoin price confirmed its bear market.

This occurred in January 2022 and resulted in a further 62% decline since the crash.
If the same thing happens this time around, the Bitcoin price will bottom below $40,000.
So, while there is a possibility of a short-term Bitcoin price bounce, fueled by the positive Nvidia Earnings report, the long-term trend remains decisively bearish.
Despite the brief boost from Nvidia’s strong earnings, Bitcoin is still struggling beneath key resistance levels and hasn’t shown any real signs of a trend reversal.
Momentum indicators remain weak, and the charts continue to lean bearish in both the short and long term.
Until BTC reclaims its primary technical levels, especially on the higher timeframes, the relief rallies are likely to be just temporary.
For now, the long-term Bitcoin prediction still points toward more downside before a proper bottom forms.
