Bitcoin price prediction: BTC/USD takes a breather as it eyes levels above $11,000 – Confluence Detector

  • Bitcoin price is held hostage between support and resistance areas at $10,559 and $10,669 respectively,
  • Correction above the first resistance at $10,669 is likely to pave the way for a remarkable move above $11,000.

Bitcoin’s dominance in the market continues to skyrocket to new levels in 2019. Holding ground at 70.5% means that the granddaddy of cryptocurrencies makes up more than three-quarters of the entire crypto market capitalization.

In the last 24-hours, Bitcoin managed to hold on to at least 2% of the accrued gains. Its trading volume has almost doubled from September 1 at $11.45 billion to $19 billion at the time of press. Similarly, the market cap increased significantly from $174.76 billion to $189.85 billion in the same period.
