Analysts Weigh In On bitcoin Move
Prices are moving so fast that analysts’ thoughts on the market are constantly cheering. But according to recent comments (which may not be relevant in a few hours’ time), may be locally topping.
STEM major-turned-Crypto Twitter mainstay, The Crypto Dog remarks that he thinks the market is going to top right about here. In an explanation tweet, Crypto Dog remarked that while the price action is undoubtedly bullish from a bird’s eye perspective, ’s chart is making it seem like a local peak is forming.
The analyst didn’t fully explain this, but he did depict that is currently encountering a resistance box (seen in grey below). What’s more, the parabola that has stuck to for the past few weeks is about to go vertical, meaning that a drawdown is possible.
I think we’re about to finally top out.

Others agreed with Crypto Dog’s analysis. Trader Cantering Clark explains that while the ongoing move seems “incredibly bullish”, is still sitting under resistance, and is too far above its 20-week moving average.

Are we Parabolic?
A Parabolic Blow-off top has been my primary view for some time now. Parabolic curves are tricky. So, be careful because she will have a deep retrace has already done a marvelous job, but, the higher the stretch, the better for Bulls

The fact of the matter is, this current rally is largely driven by those already in , not those not involved in the crypto industry. As NewsBTC’s Joseph Young postulated on Twitter, “existing money in the crypto market [is] coming back due to overall growth in confidence/comfort.”
Google Statistics would confirm this. Popular researcher Alex Kruger explains that the “” search term’s volume is still at lows, with interest purportedly being 10% of what there was at ’s $20k peak in late-December 2017.
