Dollar lurks as BTC price rebounds

Подаци из Цоинтелеграпх Маркетс Про ТрадингВиев followed BTC/USD as it rebounded overnight to local highs of $21,078 on Bitstamp — enough to clinch new six-week highs.

The pair had seen a consolidatory phase ensue after its first trip to the $21,000 mark, the first time it had traded above $21,000 since Sep. 13.

The subsequent retracement was modest in character, Bitcoin not even testing $20,000 before reversing higher once more.

The end of the Wall Street trading week saw BTC price action follow United States equities, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite Index finishing Oct. 28 up 2.5% and 2.9%, respectively.

In his most recent Twitter update, popular trader and analyst Il Capo of Crypto maintained an existing theory over how short-term price action би се одвијао.

“Same same,” he сажети alongside a chart showing potential upside and downside target levels.

“If so that’s a bad combo leading into Fed announcement Nov 2nd.”
