- Ali tweeted yesterday that BTC needs to close a weekly candle above $31.7K to avoid further losses.

- Short-term technical indicators suggest BTC could rise to above $26,915 in the coming few days.
The cryptocurrency trader and analyst Ali revealed in a tweet yesterday that Bitcoin (BTC) needs to close a weekly candle above $31,700 to avoid further downfall. In the post, he mentioned that the Parabolic SAR on the market leader’s weekly chart is above the cryptocurrency’s price, which is a potentially bearish signal indicating a downtrend.
From a price perspective, BTC was changing hands at $26,063.76 at press time according to CoinMarketCap. This was after the cryptocurrency achieved a 0.83% gain over the past 24 hours. Despite the positive daily performance, BTC’s weekly performance remained in the red zone at -11.28%.
Looking at the daily chart for BTC//USDT, BTC’s price printed another higher low yesterday. Nevertheless, the leading cryptocurrency’s price still traded below the lower level of the Bollinger Bands (BBANDS) indicator.
This suggests that BTC’s price may continue its steady ascent during the beginning of the week as it will most likely attempt to recover to within the technical indicator’s range. Furthermore, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator was in extreme oversold territory – signaling a potential opportunity zone for a long position.
If this bullish thesis plays out, then BTC may rise to above $26,915 in the upcoming couple of days. A daily close above this price point will then most likely be followed by a retest of the next major resistance level at $28,295.38 in the following week – potentially clearing a path to $30K for the market leader.
On the other hand, BTC falling to close a daily candle above $29,915 before this coming Wednesday will put the cryptocurrency at risk of testing the next crucial support level. In this scenario, BTC’s price could drop to as low as $24,200 in the coming 2 weeks.
