The strong reversal in Bitcoin’s price direction has many traders wondering what to expect next from BTC going forward.
Bitcoin’s rise above the 200-day moving average puts BTC in a “good position”
Bitcoin’s ongoing recovery accelerated on Sept. 26 backed by interest rate cuts in China and the perception that the US would manage a 'soft landing' on inflation. China’s latest stimulus push and the upcoming US election are also being viewed as reasons for Bitcoin’s price rally.
Bitcoin analysts, meanwhile, saw the need for the price to produce a decisive close above the daily 200 moving average (MA), currently at $63,855, to secure the uptrend.
“#Bitcoin’s market structure has flipped back to bullish on the daily timeframe” and is “also trading back above the Daily 200MA,” declared popular trader Crypto Daan Trades in a Sept. 26 X post.

Historically, September has often been a bearish month for Bitcoin. However, Rekt Capital believes that the latest recovery in BTC price could make September a “fake-breakdown month after all.”
“Bitcoin is currently +9% up this September, making it the best September of all time for Bitcoin.”
“I was told September is historically a bearish month,” Pseudonymous trader Honey asked their 118,000 X followers, adding, “Why are we at 65K?”
