Bitcoin paints a clear ‘double bottom’ but ailing momentum could force a $34K retest

cointelegraph.com:

Bullish optimism returned to the cryptocurrency market on March 1after a majority of tokens turned green and Bitcoin bulls telegraphed their intention to hold the $40,000 level as support going forward.

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that the price of Bitcoin (BTC) has surged 20% from a low of $37,409 on Feb. 28 to an intraday high at $44,951 on Tuesday.

Here’s what several analysts are saying about the sudden bullish reversal in Bitcoin price and what crypto traders can expect moving forward during this time of increased global tensions.

Prior to Tuesday’s price surge, BTC sellers were firmly in control of the market according to a report from Delphi Digital, which posted the following chart and noted that “in the wake of recent events that have unfolded, being cautious over the last two weeks has indeed proved to be the correct course of action.”

According to Delphi Digital, the major lower support level to keep an eye on is $34,000 based on the amount of support seen there back in January when a hawkish Fed caused markets to tumble “before staging an impressive rally.”

A more bullish projection was offered by on-chain analysis firm Glassnode, which noted that “despite a 50%+ correction” since the highs in November, a majority of the buyers that had entered the market throughout the August to November rally “have not liquidated their positions.”

According to Glassnode’s analysis of the URPD metric, which shows the distribution of coin supply at the price it last moved on-chain, “the primary redistribution appears to be coming from investors who bought the $60,000+ range” and have recently been selling in the $35,000 to $38,000 price range.
