Bitcoin’s Potential For A Short-Term Growth Hinted By Coinbase Premium

by

As a seasoned researcher with over two decades of experience in financial markets, I find myself intrigued by the recent developments surrounding Bitcoin. The Coinbase Premium, a key indicator that often reflects institutional investor sentiment, suggests a potential short-term rally for BTC, which aligns with my own analysis and observations of market trends.

It’s possible that Bitcoin, the leading digital currency, might see an upturn soon. The recent happenings surrounding Coinbase Premium are indicating a possibility of a quick surge, which points towards a promising future for Bitcoin within the next few weeks.

Short-Term Rally For Bitcoin On The Horizon

The Coinbase Premium, a significant gauge tracking price disparities between Bitcoin on Coinbase and other digital currency exchanges, suggests an optimistic trend might be emerging in Bitcoin’s price soon. This could mean that American institutional investors are heavily buying Bitcoin, suggesting increased demand and bullish attitudes in the U.S. market. If this continues, it may lead to a temporary increase in Bitcoin’s value as these investors aim to profit from its rising power.

Market analyst and enthusiast Yonsei Dent recently shared his insights in a post on the top on-chain analytics platform, CryptoQuant. According to his analysis, there might be an upcoming short surge based on his examination of the Coinbase Premium Index within the 1-hour timeframe and by employing the 24-hour and weekly moving averages to pinpoint short-term market momentum.

After a comprehensive examination, it was found that when the daily average movement noticeably surpassed the weekly average, it also led to substantial changes in the price trend.

Based on previous patterns in Bitcoin’s price behavior, an expert pointed out that there often tends to be a short-term increase in price when Bitcoin aims for a “golden cross.” This is because significant price fluctuations have typically followed right after the 1-day moving average successfully intersects (or “crosses”) the weekly moving average in what’s known as a golden cross, which happens when the shorter moving average significantly surpasses the longer one.

As an analyst, I’ve noticed an interesting shift: The weekly moving average has briefly given way to the current daily moving average. At present, the price stands at approximately $66,400, a region where potential support for the September high may arise. This is suggested by the black arrow on the chart.

Based on current trends, Yonsei Dent expects the market to form a steadily climbing pattern, provided that the high points and low points keep rising, with these levels incrementally increasing since August.

A Possible Price Correction For BTC

Although the higher prices on Coinbase could indicate a quick surge ahead, Kyle Doops, a technical analyst and host of Crypto Banter, suggests that Bitcoin might experience a price drop in the near future. This prediction is rooted in his analysis of Bitcoin’s quarterly performance, which compared its market cap to its realized cap, revealing significant trends for the market.

After analyzing the metric, the expert issued a caution about potential selling pressure and bearish indicators if the market capitalization growth exceeds the actual capital. However, a consistent actual capital during market downturns may indicate market bottoms. “Given similar patterns as 2021,” he continued, “a price adjustment could be imminent.
