Trader Notes: Crypto trader Elja sees a golden cross formation on Bitcoin.

CrediBULL Crypto says although Bitcoin is at new local highs, there is not much change in open interest.  While he stated, "all recent shorts now underwater and all recent longs technically in profit," he believes the pressure is on bears to make a stand or they will get squeezed.  

EmperorBTC says that the $60,000 resistance has been tested, broken, tested and retested so many times and the "incoming Breakout to the upside will be unlike" imagined.

He concluded, "If you plan it well, you’ll be dumping on the retail who enters at $100,000."

Crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez believes if Bitcoin can maintain support at $60,365, the next key resistance levels to watch are $64,045 and $66,250.

Javon Marks sees that Bitcoin is shattering defense of bears and with dominance sustaining, "Bitcoin’s most bullish phase of this cycle" can be welcomed. He concluded, "This cycle can trump the 2016-2017 cycle in terms of bull intensity…"
