Bitcoin's Rally Splits Trader Opinions: 'Daily Says We're Going Higher' But One Indicator Presents A 'Sell Signal On The 4H Chart'

Author: Khyathi Dalal | May 16, 2024 01:04pm

Bitcoin’s (CRYPTO: BTC) rally to $66,000, marking its best-performing day since March 20, has sparked a range of reactions from prominent crypto traders.

What Happened: Trader Kevin suggests that Bitcoin may experience a minor pullback but remains optimistic about its upward trajectory. "BTC looks like it wants to wipe out some late longs which is totally fine. Inevitably, the daily says we're going higher," indicating that short-term corrections are normal and won't deter the long-term bullish trend.

In line with this cautious optimism, Ali Martinez points to a technical indicator signaling a brief correction. He adds, "The TD Sequential presents a sell signal on the Bitcoin 4-hour chart, anticipating a one to four candlesticks correction for BTC." This implies a short-term dip before potentially resuming its upward path.

On the more bullish end of the spectrum, Jelle highlights a significant technical confirmation, noting that “Yesterday’s daily close confirmed the Power of Three setups for Bitcoin.” He targets $82,000.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin's daily active addresses rose by 5.6% and large transaction volume increased by 24.3%.
