BTC price up 18% against weekly lows
Data from Cointelegraph Markets and TradingView showed BTC/USD retaking another key psychological level during Monday trading.
The weekend had already produced major upside for the pair, which late last week dived to $16,300. By the start of Monday, $18,600 had appeared, with Bitcoin going on to deliver returns of at least 17% versus those lows.
As Cointelegraph reported, a giant $1,300 CME futures gap threatens to take the market lower, but buyers so far remain unfazed. At press time, highs above $19,200 were in progress with around half an hour to go before the start of trading on Wall Street.
“Leveling up. The crucial area around $17,800 held,” Cointelegraph Markets analyst Michaël van de Poppe summarized just prior to the $19,000 move.
“Now the crucial area is $18,200 and the final breaker before ATH is the resistance around $18,600-18,900.”
Should Bitcoin manage to flip that zone to support, the door remains open for another attempt at challenging $20,000. Last week, however, $19,500 provided firm resistance.
