Bitcoin Price To Return Above $63,000? Here’s What Needs To Happen

The Bitcoin price has shown good signs of recovery over the past seven days, returning above $58,000 to end the week. Interestingly, a prominent crypto analyst on X has identified a chart formation signaling a potential continuation of this resurgence by the premier cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin Price Prints This Chart Pattern — What Next?

In a new post on the X platform, popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez shared an exciting analysis for the Bitcoin price over the next few days. According to the crypto pundit, the flagship cryptocurrency seems to be at a critical point for a bullish breakout that could see its price reclaim former highs.

The rationale behind Martinez’s projection is the formation of an ascending triangle pattern on the Bitcoin four-hour price chart. An ascending triangle refers to a technical analysis pattern that features a horizontal line drawn along swing highs and a rising trendline drawn along swing lows.

Typically, ascending triangles are referred to as continuation patterns, as price often breaks out of the triangle in the prevalent trend direction (uptrend or downtrend) in the triangle formation. However, this is not always the case with the chart pattern. 

Martinez highlighted that if the Bitcoin price successfully breaks above the triangle’s horizontal line, which is set around the $59,200 resistance level, it could continue its recovery journey. According to the analyst, the premier cryptocurrency could rally as high as the $63,800 mark.

As of this writing, the price of Bitcoin stands at $59,431, breaking above the $59,200 following the failed assassination attempt on United States former President and vocal Bitcoin supporter Donald Trump. A sustained break above this level would make the $63,800 price projection more likely than ever.

BTC Weighted Sentiment Falls To Lowest Level Since 2020

In another post on X, Martinez revealed that Bitcoin’s weighted sentiment witnessed a plunge following the coin’s recent decline to $53,300. According to data from Santiment, the weighted sentiment fell to -2 on July 5, its lowest level since the COVID-19 crash in March 2020. 

A negative sentiment is not exactly a good sign for the Bitcoin price, as it could be a signal of further downside for the coin. Although the Bitcoin weighted sentiment hit a multi-year low a little over a week ago, it is currently moving towards the positive side.

However, the metric is still negative at around -0.47 based on Martinez’s post on Saturday, July 13. This could imply further downside for the price of flagship cryptocurrency.
