BTC/USD has clear path to $4,000 if bulls can get past resistance at $3,900 - Confluence Detector

  • BTC/USD has gone up from $3,626 to $3,883 in the last two days with even more potential for growth.
  • The daily confluence detector shows only one line of support at $3,830 which means that the bears can take control of the market if the bulls are not too careful.

BTC/USD has enjoyed a pretty bullish couple of days, going up from $3,626 on Monday, February 18th, to $3,883 on Wednesday, February 20th. The market still has immense potential for growth, according to the daily confluence detector. BTC/USD bulls can breach past the $4,000 resistance level, provided they can break past the strong resistance level at $3,900. 

Worryingly though, the BTC/USD market only has one significant line of support at $3,830, which should motivate the bears to take action. 

BTC/USD daily confluence detector

According to the BTC/USD daily confluence detector, the resistance levels lie at $3,960 and $3,900. The confluences at those levels are:

  • $3,900: 15-min previous high, 5-day simple moving average (SMA 5), SMA 100, monthly pivot point resistance 1, and SMA 10.
  • $3,960: SMA 100, daily pivot point resistance 1, and 15-min Bollinger band upper curve.

The only significant support line lies at $3,830. The confluence on that level is as follows - the monthly 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, SMA 200, and SMA 50.
