Bitcoin followed our previous prediction, and the mark of $12,000 was easily surpassed. 

During the day the leading crypto jumped out of the ascending channel, setting a bearish lower maximum at $12,700. The price, however, soon rebounded from the previous support, which was at the level of $12,061, keeping the bulls in the game. A break above $12,700 will further strengthen the bullish position and allow the rally to levels above $13,000 according to the chart.

On the other hand, a sudden drop in prices below $12,061 can drastically change sentiment.

However, Artur Dzhalilov, CEO at Vexel is more optimistic about the future price of BTC:

New impact will come in September-October when Bitcoin will reach $20,000 and in December we'll see the new price level between $35,000-$40,000 per Bitcoin.”

On the daily time frame, one can see how the price rise above $12,061 broke the bearish pattern from falling highs. It is also important that the breakthrough of key resistance was accompanied by an increase in trading volumes.

The price of BTC is trading at $11,379 at the time of writing.
