On April 23, the Bitcoin (BTC) price continued the rally it had begun the previous day, creating another bullish engulfing candlestick in the process.
The increase initially went all the way up to $7,738, but dipped back shortly afterward and reached a close at $7,482.
Bitcoin Ascending ChannelThe Bitcoin price is seemingly trading inside an ascending channel — one that has been in place since reaching a high of $6,900 on March 20. The price reached the support line of this channel on April 22 and has been increasing since.
The closest resistance area is found near $8,000, coinciding with the resistance line for this channel.
As for technical indicators, there is no bearish divergence in the RSI yet, which means that the price could continue its increase until the resistance of the channel. The presence of divergence at that point will be crucial in determining whether the price will break out.
Volume has been decreasing since the March 12 bottom, which suggests that the move has been losing its strength. However, yesterday’s candlestick had significant volume, meaning that one last push upward is likely, and also aligns with the rest of the analysis.

If this occurs, it would complete the upward move towards $8,000, as outlined in the previous section.
