Just like the U.S. Dollar fell through a key support level late last week, Bitcoin also moved past a key resistance level in trading today. Both of these moves have two things in common first these levels were both based on extremely long term Fibonacci retrenchments spanning vast amounts of their all-time charts. Secondly these recent breakouts represent the high likelihood that both the U.S.

Today I wish to touch upon something other than Bitcoin futures, and that is silver. For weeks I have contemplating how silver will likely reach $25 before gold reaches $1900 o Bitcoin reaches $11,000. This is because I believe silver is the most undervalued and also has the most upside potential in the near future.

With BTC futures trading as calm and stable as ever before we have to ask ourselves when this period ends and BTC breaks which direction will it favor? While the fundamentals are bullish we cannot ignore the descending top BTC has yet to break on every attempt is vastly approaching. Currently this resistance channel sits at approximately $10,000.

Not since March 2019 have we seen the upper and lower Bollinger bands come as close as they are now only $600 apart. The narrowing range of the Bollinger bands is a sign that the volatility has fallen and remained at an extremely low level. The previous occurrence of such a narrow gap between bands directly preceded a $10,000 price advance.

Bitcoin futures are falling down a slightly negative slope and the fact that they have fallen and remained under their 50-day moving average confirms that further sideways action is to be expected with a slight downward slope.

Bitcoin’s relatively low volatility may have a lot of traditional bulls turned off but all along we and many other analysts have said that a day would come when Bitcoin has shed its volatility.

Boring Bitcoin is a term rarely used but might be more common in the future as Bitcoin sheds its volatility over time. That has been ever more evident over the last week of trading.

We all know about the Netherlands and the “tulip mania” that consumed the Dutch people starting in the early 1700’s when merchants from the Ottoman Empire introduced the tulip to the Dutch from the in the mid-1500's, the flower became popular because it tolerated the region’s harsh climate conditions. The Netherlands became a prime location for growers and sellers of the seeds and bulbs.

Traders shrugged away any worries over the pandemic and its curve that in America any way never flattened but just keeps climbing.

BTC futures are trading lower today for the fifth sessions in a row today fractionally lower. As of 4:00 PM EDT Bitcoin futures are trading at $9,120, down approximately .20% on the day. But it seems that BTC may be making a return to rally mode again and the 50-day moving average currently at $9,123 looks just like the place to recover from.
