It appears that Bitcoin bulls aren’t ready to take a breather just yet after the jump to $7,600 just hours ago. Just minutes ago, the cryptocurrency surged past $7,900, reaching as high as $7,920 as buyers finally have stepped in. As of the time of writing this article, the cryptocurrency is up 5.79% in the past 24 hours, slightly underperforming Ethereum’s near-6% performance and dramatically falling short of XRP’s jaw-dropping 12% gain.

Although the momentum is impressive, some analysts are starting to fear that a short-term pullback is likely on the horizon, citing a number of technicals and chart patterns that suggest Bitcoin may be overextended in the short term.

Bitcoin Poised for Short-Term Pullback

CryptoHamster noted that with this major pump, Bitcoin has reached the upper bound of a key downward channel that the cryptocurrency has been trading in for some seven or so months now. This may imply that prices could see a strong pullback, for BTC was majorly rejected off this downtrend three times in the past few months.

Technically, a nice short opportunity with a tight stop loss.

Not to mention, the cryptocurrency is currently at a clear horizontal resistance level that has been relevant since September of last year, meaning that Bitcoin will need strong momentum to clear past these levels prior to a move higher.

Eventual Bullish Continuation Likely

While there is a extremely short-term bearish argument as outlined by the abovementioned analysts, the seeming consensus among analysts is that eventually (meaning the coming day or two), Bitcoin should continue to rocket higher.

Per previous reports from NewsBTC, Josh Olszewicz, an analyst at Brave New Coin, recently noted that an inverse head and shoulders chart pattern — a bullish pattern that is likely to mark a strong bottom for BTC — is playing out for Bitcoin.

He remarked in a TradingView post outlining his trading idea that should BTC hit $7,525 (and it has), a move to the $8,100 to $8,700 range — a 7% and 14% rally, respectively — is likely to play out. As to why the rally will stop there, he cited a confluence of a few key resistances: the 200-day exponential moving average, the daily Ichimoku Cloud, a yearly pivot point, and the weekly 20 moving average.

Not to mention, Bitcoin’s hash rate— the measure of computational power processing BTC transactions — hit a new all-time high on the 1st day of 2020. The all-time high, 119 exahashes per second, or 119 with 18 zeroes after it.

This surge in the hash rate breaks the previous all-time high set more than two months ago in October, meaning that Bitcoin’s network is now stronger than ever before, marking an amazing start to 2020.
