Bitcoin rallied after reaching 41,967.50 static support. At the time of writing, it was traded at 43,123.48 level. BTC/USD registered a 3.76% growth from today's low of 41,782.21 to 43,351.50 daily high. In the short term, the bias remains bullish, the cryptocurrency could resume its rebound.
In the last 24 hours, BTC/USD is up by 0.34% and by 2.69% in the last 7 days. Technically, the crypto retreated a little only to test and retest the immediate support levels before trying to jump higher.
BTC/USD upside pressure
As you can see on the H4 chart, BTC/USD escaped from a down channel pattern which is seen as a bullish formation. It has dropped and retested the 41,967.50 support, developing a bullish engulfing pattern.
Now, it challenges the weekly pivot point (43,331.49). Jumping and stabilizing above it may signal potential further growth. Personally, I've drawn an uptrend line, so as long as it stays above it, BTC/USD could extend its growth.
BTC/USD outlook
BTC/USD could extend its growth if it closes and stabilizes above the weekly pivot point of 43,331.49. In the short term, it could develop an up channel as long as it stays above the uptrend line. The 45,750 and the descending pitchfork's upper median line (uml) could be used as upside targets.
Only a new lower low, a bearish closure below 41,782.21 could invalidate an upside continuation.
