Next stop a $40,000 retest?

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView followed BTC/USD as it continued the rebound that began on Monday.

At the time of writing, two breakthroughs of $38,000 had occurred, with the pair lingering just below that level amid further direction cues.

For Cointelegraph contributor Michaël van de Poppe, the signs were encouraging, with the stage being set for a potential exit from the $30,000–$40,000 corridor.

“Bitcoin held $36K and tested $38K already. If that one tests again, we are likely to get a breakout and potentially test $40.7K,” he told Twitter followers.

Almost as bullish on short timeframes was trader, analyst and podcast host Scott Melker, known as the “Wolf Of All Streets. ”

“Target is $39,600, which as you know is ‘coincidentally’ the key resistance on higher time frames,” he said as part of his latest Twitter update, identifying a cup and handle pattern on the hourly chart.

Even if the overall trend demands that Bitcoin continue to fall, he added, $39,600 remained important as a zone to challenge.

Here is $39,600 on the weekly. This is where bullish market structure broke down with a lower low.

This is the initial target of my current longs. It «should» theoretically be retested as resistance, even if we are going down further.

Рост Dogecoin затмил основные криптовалюты

Альткоины, тем временем, продолжали демонстрировать облегчение: Эфир (ETH) за последние 24 часа подорожал еще на 4,3% и вернулся выше $2 500.

Крупнейший альткоин по рыночной капитализации, тем не менее, опередил несколько аналогов, включая Solana (SOL) и XRP.

В топ-10 криптовалют по рыночной капитализации, однако, лидировал Dogecoin (DOGE), который прибавил около 10% за тот же период.

Движение сопровождалось свежей рекламой со стороны генерального директора Tesla Илона Маска, который пообещал съесть один из Happy Meals от McDonald’s по телевизору, если гигант быстрого питания решит принимать DOGE для платежей.
