  • Bulls aim for Bitcoin to surpass $111,980 resistance zone, fueled by optimistic US-China trade developments.
  • $15.11 billion in short positions face liquidation if Bitcoin rises 10%.
  • Analysts debate short-term risks including potential dips to $101,500 or $104,000.
  • Altcoins show mixed fortunes but Hypecoin demonstrates notable technical strength.

Bitcoin (BTC)

Bitcoin demonstrated bullish momentum this week, approaching the $111,980 resistance level as traders target new all-time highs.

Market participants appear influenced by upbeat sentiments surrounding upcoming US-China trade discussions, adding to the buying pressure. Technical indicators suggest an inverted head-and-shoulders pattern may be forming, with successful breakout above $112,700 potentially targeting the pattern’s $146,892 peak.

However, bears maintain a strong defensive position. A drop below $105,296—the 20-day exponential moving average—could trigger bearish momentum, potentially extending to $93,000 if key support levels fail. Active short positions totaling $15.11 billion face liquidation risks if the cryptocurrency achieves a 10% gain.

S&P 500 (SPX)

The S&P 500 Index continued its recovery momentum as bulls built upon recent gains.

The index, trading above the 5,883 moving average, has bulls eyeing the 6,147 overhead resistance mark. Indicators such as the relative strength index remain bullish, suggesting continued upward pressure.

Despite current gains, the S&P remains vulnerable to a pullback if the 20-day EMA is breached, potentially testing support around 5,767 Levels.

Hypecoin (HYPE)

Alternative cryptocurrencies showed mixed performance, while Hypecoin stood out with notable technical strength.

Bulls for Hypecoin point to a recent price breakout from a symmetrical triangle pattern, signaling potential upside momentum. The cryptocurrency rose above $40 resistance and could target the pattern’s $46.50 ceiling if sustained buying interest materializes.

Bears present a counter-narrative, cautioning that a sharp price reversal below the $42.50 level could invalidate bullish positioning, potentially triggering a sell-off toward $28.50 support levels.
