Bitcoin (BTC) technical and fundamental analysis📈 Technical analysis BTC/USDT
The price of Bitcoin has hit an all-time high amid expectations of the halving and capital inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs. Currently, it is approaching a test of the local resistance trendline, which will determine the direction of further price movement. If the BTC price fails to overcome it immediately, we can expect a correction of the last upward impulse towards the dynamic support line EMA 50 4H. There is also an important psychological level at 70,000 above which the price needs to hold. However, if they cannot withstand selling pressure, there is a chance of seeing a correction to the Imbalance 4H zone between 55,000 and 60,000, where it is necessary to close the gaps in trading volumes at horizontal levels. The need for a correction is also indicated by the emerging bearish divergence on the RSI indicator. In the next section, we will consider Bitcoin targets if, due to fundamental factors, its price continues its relentless rise.
📉 Bitcoin market global analysis
After consolidating above the 0.78 Fibonacci level and reaching a new all-time high, the price of BTC has transitioned into a full-fledged bullish trend. With no historical resistance levels above the ATH, we will utilize trendlines, Fibonacci extension levels, and analysis of significant order blocks in exchange order books to determine growth targets.
For the continuation of the uptrend, Bitcoin's price first needs to establish itself above the 70,000 level on a weekly candlestick basis. Currently, it is approaching a test of the local ascending trendline, which has been relevant since November 2023. This test may occur around the 75,000 level, supported by a significant block of pending orders. Beyond that, around the 90,000 mark, lies the global trendline based on the peaks of the two previous Bitcoin cycles. Additionally, the 1.38 Fibonacci extension level aligns in this area. The highest trendline sits within the 1.61 to 1.78 Fibonacci extension range, with a potential test starting from the 100,000 level.
Bitcoin's price is entering the pre-halving bull rally phase. However, historically, Bitcoin halvings have been preceded by corrections. The RSI indicator is once again in the overbought zone, forming a bearish divergence. Moreover, the fear and greed index has been in extreme greed territory for quite some time, typically signaling a trend reversal. Considering the absence of a significant correction since October 2023, conditions are ripe for one to begin. If Bitcoin can maintain its upward momentum until the halving, we may anticipate a global correction of the entire 2023 uptrend afterward. The halving itself could serve as a selling signal, based on the idea that the cryptocurrency has reached a local peak, similar to what happened following the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US in January 2024. In that scenario, we would expect a correction in the 0.5 to 0.68 Fibonacci level range and a retest of the 200-week moving average. Additionally, there lies the Imbalance 1W zone between 54,000 and 60,000, where it is crucial to close gaps in horizontal trading volume levels.

📊 Fundamental analysis
The uninterrupted rise of Bitcoin is occurring as the halving event approaches. This event is scheduled for April 2024 and will halve the rate of new BTC entering the market. The previous three halvings, which took place in 2012, 2016, and 2020, triggered cycles of cryptocurrency growth due to the formation of its scarcity. In 2024, the scarcity of Bitcoin may become more acute due to the adoption of spot Bitcoin ETFs and the influx of large capital into the market. The growing interest of investors in spot Bitcoin ETFs forces issuers to buy cryptocurrency from the market. The volume of BTC assets held by BlackRock has increased to 196,065 bitcoins, surpassing MicroStrategy by 3,065 coins.
