Smart Crypto Investing: Bitcoin, Altcoins & Trading Strategies podcast.
Hey there, crypto enthusiasts! Crypto Willy here with your weekly roundup of what's been shaking in the digital asset world.
Bitcoin has been on quite the rollercoaster this week! After hitting that jaw-dropping all-time high near $112,000 in May, Bitcoin has settled into a consolidation phase, trading between $104,000 and $105,000. Despite pulling back from its peak, BTC has impressively maintained position above the psychological $100,000 support level for more than 20 consecutive days now – talk about resilience!
As of yesterday (June 6), Bitcoin surged to $104,612, marking a 1.5% increase from the previous day. The market cap currently stands at a massive $2.06 trillion, with Bitcoin dominance at 63.28%, clearly showing who's still boss in the crypto space. Daily trading volumes have been healthy between $46-63 billion, indicating strong institutional and retail participation.
Now, where are we headed? The crystal ball is showing mixed signals. Some technical indicators suggest Bitcoin could target $120,000 in the near term if it breaks through key resistance levels at $108,000 and the previous high of $112,000. The Fear & Greed Index sits at 69, firmly in "Greed" territory, showing overall market optimism.
However, there's also some concerning news on the horizon. A bearish RSI divergence similar to what we saw in 2021 has appeared, suggesting Bitcoin could potentially face a significant correction – possibly more than 50% – which might drive prices down toward $64,000. That would certainly challenge those optimistic $150,000 year-end targets some analysts have been throwing around.
For June specifically, price predictions vary widely. Some analysts suggest Bitcoin might climb as high as $137,017 this month, while maintaining a floor around $105,036. Looking further ahead to July, the average trading prediction sits at $108,544, with potential range between $100,377 and $116,711.
August might bring a slight cooldown with prices expected to hover around $102,921, and September could see Bitcoin testing that $100,000 support level more seriously.
For all you smart investors out there, this consolidation phase presents both opportunities and risks. Consider dollar-cost averaging if you're looking to build positions, and keep an eye on those key support levels – particularly $100,000 and $98,000. The 50-day EMA at $100,852 and 200-day EMA at $96,559 are also crucial technical indicators to watch.
Remember, even in a bull market, corrections are normal and healthy. This might be the perfect time to review your portfolio allocation and ensure you're comfortable with your exposure levels.
