Bitcoin Price Analysis: BTC Trading In A Tight Range, Huge Move Coming Up Soon?

Last Thursday, Bitcoin broke out a triangle pattern, the second in the same week, as can be seen on the following 4-hour chart. The breakout initiated an immediate $400 price gain, surpassing the $9000 benchmark level.

Over the past two days, after breaking above the $9K mark, we saw Bitcoin trading in a tight range between $9000 and $9200.

While Wall Street and the global markets were crashing further 5% over the past two days of trading, Bitcoin successfully disconnected its recent correlation to the markets, and now all eyes are on the primary cryptocurrency – is Bitcoin a real safe-haven like Gold or not?

Back to the charts: the recent declining amount of trading volume, along with the consolidation of the RSI indicator around 50, likely to predict a huge move coming up.

It’s still early to say whether the coming-up move will be to the bullish or bearish direction; however, a break above $9200 or below $9000 is likely to decide the short term for Bitcoin price.
