Trader Notes: Investor and entrepreneur Ted Pillows noted that his timeline has turned bearish, and people are calling for a Bitcoin price of $38,000-$40,000. He drew parallels that Bitcoin has always consolidated below all-time highs for a prolonged period and said, "read past Bitcoin cycles, and you’ll realize that we’re perfectly on the path to the moon."
Daan Crypto Trades sees Bitcoin remaining rangebound and in the middle of nowhere at the moment. He predicted that the biggest cluster is at $70,000.
Crypto Chase predicts a deviation/sweep of either side and potential reversal play. He had expected that CPI would prompt a move, but nothing happened.
Rekt Capital noted that Bitcoin's local highs are at $61,700 and acting as resistance.
What’s Next: The influence of Bitcoin as an institutional asset class is expected to be thoroughly explored at Benzinga’s upcoming Future of Digital Assets event on Nov. 19.
