Tech view on BTC by Sathvik Vishwanath, Co-Founder & CEO, Unocoin
The pivot point at $70,600 is crucial for today's bullish outlook. The immediate resistance levels are $71,800, $72,500 and $73,100, while the support levels are at $70,600, $69,650 and $68,500.
A recent symmetrical triangle break above $70,600 supports Bitcoin, with the 50-day EMA at $69,000 and RSI of 66 indicating a buying trend. A double top pattern near $71,800 is creating resistance, but increased buying could push Bitcoin to $72,500. Therefore, consider buying above $70,600, targeting $71,800 and $72,500. A break below $70,600 could signal a bearish trend.
