Key Takeaways
Bitcoin had corrected since its March all-time high of $73,777. The correction was contained inside a descending parallel channel with extremely choppy movement.
However, BTC started its final upward movement on Aug. 5 and accelerated its slope after creating two higher lows. On Nov. 6, the Bitcoin price reached a new all-time high of $75,000.
Let’s analyze the Bitcoin price action and see the next target and when the price can reach it.
In addition to the breakout, the long-term wave count implies the increase will continue. The count suggests that Bitcoin started the fifth and final wave (white) of its rise in August.
The count gives a target range of $85,100 – $88,800. The 1.61 external Fibonacci retracement of wave four (black) creates the lower boundary of the range. The upper boundary is created by giving wave five 0.618 times the length of waves one and three combined (white).
The ascending parallel channel that connects waves two and four can help determine when BTC will reach the high. The channel’s midline aligns with the target in March (black circle).
Aligning this with our target, the high may be reached in March (black circle).
If wave five extends, the Bitcoin price can reach a high near $107,168 – $113,278. The 2.61 external Fibonacci level gives the upper boundary, while the lower one is found by giving wave five the same length as waves one and three combined.
The same parallel channel suggests this high will be reached in July.
Technical indicators support this upward movement. This is especially visible in the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD), which has made a bullish cross in positive territory. This happened last at the beginning of wave three and led to the previous all-time high.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is also above 50 and increasing, corroborating the positive MACD reading.
The Bitcoin price reached a new all-time high on Nov. 6. The price action, wave count, and indicator readings all suggest the upward movement will continue.
The first target range for the high is between $85,100 – $88,000, while the second is between $107,168 – $113,278.
