BTC price inches back toward $62,000

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView confirmed the return of uninspiring sideways price action after Tuesday’s volatility.

As Cointelegraph reported, BTC/USD rose almost $4,000 before topping out, with momentum then fading away to produce lows of $62,400 at the time of writing.

As ever for a post-halving Q4, analysts continued to cast aside any bearish theories.

“Market looks primed,” popular Twitter account TechDev summarized.

A separate post reexamined Fibonacci levels that have determined Bitcoin ( $76,946.00 ) price cycle tops in both the 2013 and 2017 post-halving Q4 periods.

Should BTC/USD repeat history, even the upcoming 4.236 extension at $73,500 would mark the start, not the end, of the most intense phase of gains.

“Will it mark the top, or will we top just above log 2.272 once again? I cannot say for certain of course, but I do expect the top of the 2-week RSI channel to tell us,” he wrote, referencing Bitcoin ( $76,946.00 ) ’s bullish relative strength index.

“But if you expect neither, and instead think BTC will suddenly top at the linear 4.236 for the first time in history, with the 2-week RSI also failing to hit the channel for the first time in history… To me that is an extremely low probability bet.”BTC/USD annotated chart with Fibonacci levels.

For the short term, funding rates once again creeping higher coincided with the price drawdown.

Polkadot ( $4.62 ) (DOT), which also broke new records on Tuesday, meanwhile, took a breather, still trading above $50 at the time of writing.

Cointelegraph earlier reported on predictions that place ETH at up to $14,000 and DOT at $100 next.
