I think it's likely to consolidate and continue up, but this has been another epic trade and price is at a key resistance on multiple time frames. Never a bad idea to pay yourself,\u201d he noted.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_123023\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-123023\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-123023 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MelkerBTCTrendline-1024x484.png\" alt=\"Bitcoin BTC\" width=\"1024\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MelkerBTCTrendline-1024x484.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MelkerBTCTrendline-300x142.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MelkerBTCTrendline-768x363.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MelkerBTCTrendline-1536x726.png 1536w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/MelkerBTCTrendline.png 1691w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-123023\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Courtesy of Scott Melker<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If bulls are able to sustain this momentum, the recent lows experienced by <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/spare-us-the-btc-obituaries-institutional-interest-in-bitcoin-is-on-the-up\/\">Bitcoin<\/a> and the aggregated crypto markets could mark a long-term bottom, but a failure to close above $8,750 could mean significant losses are imminent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin\u2019s bulls have now propelled the cryptocurrency to the upper boundary of a strong multi-month channel, and they appear to be showing some signs of faltering as BTC struggles to break past this level.
