Latest Bitcoin price and analysis (BTC to USD)

At the time of writing, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading just above $10,450 after recovering significantly from last week’s dump which took BTC below its 20-day EMA.

Bitcoin fell to as low as $9,000 last week before powering back above $10,000 in the space of an hour on Thursday.

Will Bitcoin push higher during the week? Or will we see more major retracements back to the $9,000 region and below?

As you can see from the chart above, BTC has dropped down to its 20-day EMA, where price has bounced slightly. Still, it is quite close to its early July lows.

What I expect to happen is for price to bounce between $9,000 and $11,000 before making its way upwards again towards the $12,000 and $13,000 levels and above.

Volume also seems to be increasing as well. Over the past two weeks, volume has gone from $20 billion to $27 billion. Also, Bitcoin’s market dominance is already above 65%, going towards 70%.

Putting all this information together, we’re now clearly on the right path to reach $15,000 – or maybe even $20,000 – by the end of 2019.

Hopefully this latest downturn is just a bump in the road and the market will pick up its positive momentum again soon. Looking at the overall market behaviour, I’m quite confident that we’re still in a bull run – or at least that’s what my analysis shows.

Safe trades!

About Bitcoin

In August 2008, the domain name bitcoin.org was registered. On 31st October 2008, a paper was published called “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System”. This was authored by Satoshi Nakamoto, the inventor of Bitcoin. To date, no one knows who this person, or people, are.

The paper outlined a method of using a P2P network for electronic transactions without “relying on trust”. On 3rd January 2009, the Bitcoin network came into existence. Nakamoto mined block number “0” (or the “genesis block”), which had a reward of 50 Bitcoins.
