Highlights

• The cross between the 100- and 200-day moving averages (MA) will determine the direction of the trend.
• Currently, the MAs have made a bullish cross.
• There is support at $8000 and $8130.
• Bitcoin is following a short-term ascending support line.

Bitcoin Daily Analysis

The Bitcoin price is trading inside a descending wedge.

The short-term 10- and 20-day MAs are in line with each other, so every short-term price movement causes a bearish or bullish cross.

On the contrary, the 100- and 200-day MAs hold more importance. At the current time, they are both above the price and close to making a bearish cross.

These two MAs have been instrumental in determining the direction of the trend.

The bearish cross in April 2018 confirmed that we were in a downtrend — which lasted until April of the next year.

In my opinion, we will not make a bearish cross.

It is much more likely that we have a rejection of the cross which is succeeded by upward movement, similar to what we had in May and December 2016.

Short-Term Movement

Looking at the short-term, we can see several things.

First, the price is following an ascending support line and has been doing so since September 30. The line is currently slightly above $8000.

Also, there is one support area at $8130, which previously acted as a resistance.

The closest resistance area is currently at $8400.

Currently, we are expecting the price to drop to the support area before resuming its upward movement.

A breakdown below the short-term support line would likely take us to the support line of the descending wedge.
