Bitcoin to hit $130,000 on this date, according to analyst

As Bitcoin ( BTC ) consolidates just below $105,000, an analyst has identified a historical trend that could propel the flagship cryptocurrency to a new all-time high in the coming weeks. Since bottoming in early April, Bitcoin has moved in a clear $10,000 step-like pattern, first breaking through $74,000, then $84,000, $94,000, and now consolidating near $104,000. This consistent progression has seen each primary level tested and breached, forming a well-defined upward channel. According to prominent crypto analyst TradingShot in a TradingView post on May 16, this formation suggests that Bitcoin is trading within an ascending channel, indicating room for continued gains.

However, the bullish structure comes with risks. A breakdown below the channel’s lower boundary could trigger a sharp correction, with possible support retests around $94,000 or even $84,000. Bitcoin’s path to $120,000 Adding to the bullish sentiment, analyst Ali Martinez noted in a May 17 X post that Bitcoin could aim for a new high near $120,000, provided it maintains support above $90,000. Martinez’s analysis was based on the “Cumulative Value Days Destroyed” (CVDD) indicator, which signals that Bitcoin is currently in a healthy accumulation phase. Historically, this metric has identified market tops and bottoms, and the current trend suggests a potential blow-off top around $120,000. Bitcoin Cumulative Value Days Destroyed chart.

Support remains at $90,000, an area that aligns with key psychological and technical levels. Amid this optimistic outlook, Bitcoin has recently hovered between $104,000 and $105,000. Analysts believe the asset may be consolidating within a bullish flag, a continuation pattern following its strong surge from $74,400 to $105,900. That rally was fueled by margin liquidations and strong spot demand, backed by billions in BTC ETF inflows.

The gap between the current price and these moving averages suggests the uptrend remains intact, even if a short-term pullback occurs.
