Suppose the price holds over a short-term resistance level of $99K; buyers might drive the trend. The recent pullback can lift the price to the $110K territory.

If the price sustains over the $100K territory, buyers might show interest and BTC may remain bullish for the next few weeks. Alternatively, if the digital asset price loses the $99K mark, most buyers might be liquidated over the $100K mark.

Here, liquidity might bring selling pressure, and a decent fall can be anticipated. The BTC price has been bullish for a long time; therefore, a dip can be seen.

Bitcoin price has been defending the 20-day EMA and has kept rising. RSI has triggered a golden crossover with the RSI-based moving average, heading toward the overbought zone.

After this bullish move, the crypto is expected to experience a short-term profit booking. In short, a pullback scenario can be generated here. That may lead to another bullish rally.

BTC Price Analysis and Forecast

Bitcoin’s recent surge to the $104K mark represented a significant achievement in its ongoing bullish trend. With this, the market capitalization rose to $2 Trillion. The $99K level of support is crucial for maintaining this momentum.

If Bitcoin can hold above this threshold, there is potential for further upward movement toward the $110K mark. This could attract more buyers in the process.

However, if the Bitcoin price falls below $99K, it may trigger selling pressure, leading to a possible correction. The current market sentiment remained optimistic. It was bolstered by strong buying activity and the recent golden crossover in the RSI.

Overall, the outlook appears bullish in the short term. At the same time, caution is advised as market dynamics can shift swiftly.
