BTC Trapped by Weekly MA50 Resistance
Bitcoin's price action remains stuck below $80,000 as it faces resistance from its weekly MA50. According to Doctor Profit, the asset needs to reclaim this major resistance level before continuing its upward momentum.
The weekly MA50 has been a significant hurdle for Bitcoin, and it has made multiple attempts to break through it in early 2023. However, Doctor Profit notes that these attempts do not guarantee success and that every candle from 2023 may not repeat itself.
He emphasizes the importance of $78,500 as a key level, which had previously broken resistance but has yet to be confirmed as support. On the other hand, $71,000 remains Doctor Profit's strongest support reference, and he believes that the market could revisit it before recovering towards higher levels.
In order for Bitcoin to reach the $82,500-$83,000 region, which is seen as a major breakout area, it needs to reclaim the weekly MA50. However, this move may take time, rather than happening within the current week.
