Bitcoin Technical Analysis: BTC/USD sets a new 2020-high at $11,450
|- BTC/USD just climbed above $11,450, setting a new 2020-high.
- The bullish momentum is notably strong but healthy consolidation is needed.
Bitcoin has been trading inside a daily uptrend for the past week but has not consolidated just yet. This is not necessarily bad as the breakout above $10,000 was extremely important. The next resistance level is all the way up at $12,000, a psychological level followed by $12,300, a two-year high.

Bitcoin price is currently at $11,443 and the daily bull flag is on the verge of a breakout, however, we could see a small rejection since Bitcoin is already quite overextended. The daily RSI is still around 82 points and trading volume has been decreasing since July 28.

BTC is getting rejected from the high at $11,457 and will need to hold the 26-EMA which has been untouched for the entire duration of the bull rally.
