After three consecutive negative monthly closes, Bitcoin made a comeback in July with a 16.8% gain, according to Coinglass data. In comparison, Ether had much better performance as it rallied more than 56% during the same period. This indicated that investors may have started accumulating at lower levels, anticipating that a bottom may be in place.
Mike McGlone, senior commodity strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, said in a tweet on July 29 that “Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s “meeting by meeting” comment may mark the pivot for Bitcoin” to outperform most assets. In another tweet on July 31, McGlone said that Bitcoin may be on track to recover from the “steepest discount” to the 100- and 200- week moving averages.
Bitcoin reversed direction from $20,715 on July 26 and rose above the ascending channel on July 28. However, the bulls could not build upon this advantage and sustain the higher levels. This indicates that bears continue to sell on rallies.
The failure to sustain the price above the channel may have attracted profit-booking from short-term bulls and shorting from aggressive bears. That has pulled the price to the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA). This is an important level to keep an eye on. If the price rebounds off the 20-day EMA, the bulls will again try to push the price above the overhead resistance at $24,666. If they succeed, the BTC/USD pair could start an upmove toward $30,000. Alternatively, if the price slips below the 20-day EMA, it will suggest that the bullish momentum may be weakening.
The pair could then decline to the 50-day simple moving average (SMA). The flattening 20-day EMA and the relative strength index (RSI) near the midpoint suggest a range-bound action in the near term. The pair may remain stuck between $20,715 and $24,666 for a few days.
He added that the risk-to-reward ratio may be “tilted favourably for one of the greatest bull markets in history.”
