Trader Notes: More Crypto Online suggests Bitcoin is currently in Wave 5 of a larger Wave 3, targeting a range between $100,275 and $101,028.

However, the full 5-wave upward pattern hasn’t completed yet, so the reversal isn’t confirmed.

If the five waves form, a pullback could bring Bitcoin back to around $98,000.

$BTC: Wave (5) of circle wave 3 should reach $100,275 – $101,028. Please note that we do not have a full 5-wave pattern to the upside yet, which means that this is not yet a solid upside reversal, just in case you are feeling FOMO.

Rekt Capital notes that Bitcoin has hit the $101,000 level, but it needs to close above this level on the daily chart and successfully retest it as support to confirm further upward movement.

If successful, Bitcoin could continue towards the blue diagonal resistance. Until then, $101,000 remains a key resistance.

Crypto trader Kevin observes that liquidity is positioned to the upside, with billions in liquidity blocks extending to $111,000.

After the initial move down, Bitcoin is expected to make its way toward $111,000, though the journey may be choppy.

However, the general expectation is that it will eventually reach that target.
