Bitcoin ‘looking like a snack’ as buy signal emerges; Is $60K next? 
Cryptocurrency Jul 6, 2024 Share
According to the latest technical analysis, Bitcoin (BTC) is showing promising signs of a bullish reversal.
Notably, crypto analyst Ali Martinez, in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on July 6, suggested that based on Bitcoin’s recent movements, the maiden cryptocurrency is “looking like a snack” on the three-day chart, indicating potential upward momentum.
Martinez pointed to the development of a bullish reversal doji candlestick on this timeframe, combined with a buy signal from the TD Sequential indicator. The TD Sequential is a well-regarded technical analysis tool identifying potential turning points in an asset’s price trend.

The emergence of these indicators suggests that Bitcoin may be gearing up for a significant price increase. Historically, a bullish reversal doji candlestick combined with a TD Sequential buy signal has often preceded substantial upward movements in the asset’s price.

“Bitcoin is looking like a snack in the 3-day chart. It is developing a bullish reversal doji candlestick, combined with a buy signal by the TD Sequential,” he said.
Path to $60,000
In this case, if the bullish reversal materializes, Bitcoin’s next major target will be around the $60,000 mark. Initially, the analyst had noted that for Bitcoin to embark on a bullish move, the crypto must reclaim the $61,000 mark and hold the position.
With Bitcoin currently hovering above $57,000, a move towards $60,000 seems plausible if the bullish indicators hold firm.
Overall, although Bitcoin shows signs of a bullish reversal, the overall market sentiment remains bearish. However, the long-standing consensus is that the maiden crypto will likely rally.
This aspect is evidenced by the fact that United States-based spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) experienced a surge in inflows on July 6. The significant inflows emerged after Bitcoin plunged to below $54,000 on July 4, indicating investors are buying the dip.
Data shared by Farside Investors indicated that spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded their most significant net inflows in a month at $143.1 million.

In the meantime, the market will seek to shake off any panic emanating from the Mt. Gox creditors’ repayments, which have been attributed to the ongoing bearish sentiments.
