However, the latest technical analysis suggests that the flagship cryptocurrency may be on the verge of a breakout to the upside, potentially eyeing a new all-time high (ATH).<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Set To Clear Descending Broadening Wedge<\/h2>\n<p>According to a recent X post by crypto trader Merlijn The Trader, Bitcoin appears poised to break out of a bullish descending broadening wedge pattern. The trader noted that if BTC can sustain support above the $104,000 level, it may target a potential high of $144,000.<\/p>\n<p>For the uninitiated, a descending broadening wedge is a bullish chart pattern formed by two diverging trendlines sloping downward, where price makes lower highs and lower lows over time. It suggests growing volatility and selling exhaustion, often leading to a breakout to the upside once resistance is broken.<\/p>\n<p>The following two-day chart shows BTC adhering to this pattern since early January 2025. A significant reversal occurred in April, when Bitcoin surged from a local low of around $76,000 to over $100,000 in just a few weeks.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-526198 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?resize=980%2C635\" alt=\"merlijn\" width=\"980\" height=\"635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?w=2289 2289w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/merlijn_b97b79.jpeg?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\"><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, fellow crypto analyst Ted Pillows shared a similar outlook. He shared the following weekly BTC chart, noting that Bitcoin just posted its highest-ever weekly close. He also highlighted that the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator has formed a bullish cross \u2013 similar to the setup in Q4 2024.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-526199 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?resize=671%2C660\" alt=\"ted\" width=\"671\" height=\"660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=1758 1758w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=427 427w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=671 671w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=64 64w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=75 75w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ted_f6d38f.jpeg?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 671px) 100vw, 671px\"><\/p>\n<p>To explain, MACD bullish cross occurs when the MACD line \u2013 short-term moving average \u2013 crosses above the signal line\u00a0 \u2013 longer-term moving average \u2013 signaling a potential shift from bearish to bullish momentum. This crossover is often seen as an early indicator of a price uptrend or buying opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin experienced strong price appreciation in Q4 2024, climbing from approximately $58,000 on October 6 to $108,000 by December 15. At the time, the rally was also fueled by renewed market optimism following Republican candidate Donald Trump\u2019s victory in the US presidential election.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Price May Stall Temporarily<\/h2>\n<p>While Bitcoin seems <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-successfully-retests-bullish-megaphone-pattern-is-a-breakout-imminent\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">poised<\/a> to set new ATHs in the near term, some analysts caution that a short pause in the uptrend may occur.
