Bitcoin Price Analysis: BTC/USD needs to clear this channel, otherwise the bears will attack
Ken ChigboKen ChigboIndependent Analyst

The Bitcoin price is seen to be still holding decent gains in the latter stages of trading on Tuesday, firmly in the green with gains over 2%, in line with the pickup in pricing observed across the crypto market so far this week.  

BTC/USD has formed an ascending channel pattern, which has seen the price grinding higher within since 14th August low at 5865. Bitcoin has jumped a chunky 20% from these deflated levels, now regaining the $7K mark.

Technically, for further upside to be seen in BTC/USD, the bulls must break free from this ascending channel pattern. Upside resistance is seen at today’s (Tuesday) high of $7126, upper part of the channel. A breach could open doors to back above $8000 territory. Support tracking at a former supply zone, $7000-6800.
