Bulls Eye $98,000 Breakout After Holding $90,000 Zone

Bitcoin Price Weekly Outlook

Well, the bitcoin price action was looking quite bearish after last week’s close, but the bulls managed to maintain the bullish structure around the $90,000 level and made that push up to $98,000 resistance. The price retreated from there and closed the week out at $93,638. Expect the bulls to take another run at the $98,000 resistance level this week and aim for the upper end of this resistance zone at $103,500 if they can sustain price action above $98,000. Early in the week, support at $91,400 may be tested and must hold for the bulls to continue their charge.

Key Support and Resistance Levels Now

The bulls have finally made some progress,…
