BTC price bounces to $39K, traders identify levels to watch

A significant resurgence for Bitcoin is expected to be met with “probable rejection” if $40,000 is reintroduced, according to one analyst.

On Feb. 23, as European markets opened with small gains, Bitcoin (BTC) began to exhibit much-welcomed upside volatility.

$39,600 is expected to elicit “strong pushback.”

BTC/USD gained significantly on Wednesday, reaching $39,000 before stabilising, according to data from TradingView.

The pair had made a decent recovery overnight, with gains totaling 6.8% over Tuesday’s lows.

“It appears I’m not receiving that modest pullback, but instead am continuing upward.” It doesn’t make a significant difference to the structure. Crypto Ed, a well-known trader, reacted, “$40,000 is a crucial level.”

Crypto Ed had previously cautioned that any push beyond $40,000 could result in a relief bounce followed by a deeper fall than this week’s.

Meanwhile, another trader and analyst Matthew Hyland identified $36,300 and $33,000 as the support levels in play for the short-term scenario. As it had been previously in February, $39,600 was the upside barrier zone he needed to break beyond.

“If we get there, expect severe resistance and likely rejection around the 39.5-40k area,” tweeted Twitter user Cheds.

 

Following Tuesday’s lows, the analytics tool Material Indicators noticed a shift in customer behaviour after days of hesitation.

It declared on Twitter that “market buyers finally got off their hands and started clicking the green button,” along with a chart showing increased order volumes of both large and small transactions.

 

With its current run upward, BTC/USD appeared to be approaching a band of resistance, according to order book data from major exchange Binance on Wednesday.

With talk of a ‘altseason,’ altcoins are bouncing back.

Altcoins had a fantastic day on Wednesday, with key tokens outperforming Bitcoin’s robust 24-hour performance.

At the time of writing, Ether (ETH) was up 6.1 percent to $2,700, similar to many of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market valuation.

Meanwhile, talk of an imminent “altseason” remained prevalent on social media.
