Analyst: Bitcoin Could Be Months Away from Setting a New All-Time High

• Bitcoin has been flashing signs of immense strength throughout the past few days and weeks, with its recent uptrend holding steady as bulls chip away at its $13,800 resistance
• Yesterday, the cryptocurrency was able to post its highest monthly candle close ever
• The technical significance of this cannot be understated, as it shows that bulls are in full control of the cryptocurrency at the moment
• Unless BTC posts a strong rejection at its current price levels, there’s a strong possibility that an upside break above $14,000 is imminent
• This could spark a move to fresh all-time highs, according to one analyst

Bitcoin has been consolidating around its key near-term resistance level at $13,800. This level was closed above yesterday, which led BTC to see its highest monthly candle close ever – even higher than that seen in December of 2017.

Where the cryptocurrency trends in the near-term may depend largely on how it continues reacting to the region between $13,800 and $14,000, as another strong rejection here could be dire.

One trader is noting that a break above this level, however, could be all that it takes for Bitcoin to see an explosive rally to fresh all-time highs.

Bitcoin Consolidates at Key Resistance as Bulls Target Fresh Highs 

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading down marginally at its current price of $13,800.

This is around the price at which it has been trading throughout the past few days, with buyers and sellers both being unable to gain any control of its short-term trend.

It is important to note that its mid-term trend is firmly in bulls’ control, and a break above the resistance directly above its current price could spark serious upside in the days and weeks ahead.

Analyst: BTC Could Rally to Fresh Highs if It Breaks One Key Level 

One analyst explained in a recent tweet that Bitcoin is on the cusp of seeing serious upside if it can break above $13,880.

He notes that a break above this level could send it rocketing to fresh all-time highs.

“Unless you live in a cave, you know that Bitcoin just hit its 2nd highest monthly close of all time. BTC just needs to break above $13,880 for an all-time high close in the coming months.”
