Data from skew Analytics showed that aggregated daily volumes for Bitcoin were at their highest on 16 March, when BTC broke above the $40k mark. In the days since then, trading volume has not been particularly high and fell back toward the three-month average. Does this mean the uptrend had stalled? News of Do Kwon, co-founder and CEO of Terraform Labs, buying $1b worth of BTC since the end of January has fueled the enthusiasm of the bulls.

The region marked in orange is a nearly 15-month range that Bitcoin has traded within, with highs and lows at $64.8k and $29.2k respectively. At the time of writing, the price has climbed past the mid-point of this range, which was technically a bullish development. At the same time, it should be remembered that the $47.2k-$48.4k area (red box) has acted as a zone of supply in the past.

The market structure shifted to a bullish bias when BTC climbed past $44.4k to reach $45.8k, and also succeeded in posting a higher low on the chart in the month of February. In the past few days, the price has climbed past $45.8k as well.

This meant that the bias for BTC is bullish, but at the same time, a dip toward $45.8k, or even as far south as $44k and $42k can not be ruled out.

The OBV has also broken above a level of importance (orange) to show that steady demand was indeed behind the rally of Bitcoin.
