Notably, the market bulls have shown some resilience in the past few days producing a market gain of 5.9% to move the digital asset back above $96,000.

The BTC market has been strongly bullish, driven by several factors including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/breaking-news-ticker\/bitcoin-hits-76000-all-time-high-as-market-reacts-to-feds-interest-rate-cuts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent Fed rate cut in November<\/a>, Donald Trump\u2019s electoral victory, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/bitcoin-etfs-see-historic-surge-institutions-go-bullish-on-btc-with-1-38-billion-record-inflows\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">high market inflows into the spot Bitcoin ETFs. <\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>Moving forward, December historically presents itself as a two-phased month for Bitcoin proven by an average return of 5.45% and a median return of -3.59% over the past 11 years.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, Martinez explains that Bitcoin has traditionally surged in any December following the US Presidential elections, as evidenced by gains of 30.80% and 46.92% in 2016 and 2020, respectively.\u00a0 If the premier cryptocurrency mirrors this similar pattern from these previous bull cycles, the analyst predicts Bitcoin to trade between $125,000 \u2013 $140,000 before 2024 runs out.<\/p>\n<p>According to data from the BTC weekly chart, the asset\u2019s 100-day simple moving average (SMA) remains far above its price signaling an uptrend continuation in agreement with Martinez\u2019s projection.\u00a0 However, a relative strength index (RSI) of 75.56 indicates Bitcoin has been overbought and is vulnerable to sudden price falls.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Investors Withdraw $5 Billion Bitcoin From Exchanges\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In more positive news for the Bitcoin community, over 55,000 Bitcoins, valued at $5.34 billion, have been moved from crypto exchanges over the last three days. This<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ali_charts\/status\/1862783994942664839\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> development<\/a> is largely interpreted as bullish as it reduces available Bitcoin supply on exchanges, potentially decreasing selling pressure. Moreover, it signifies investors\u2019 anticipation of immediate price gains by BTC.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, BTC trades at $96,203 following a 0.43% loss in the past 24 hours. In any further ascent, Bitcoin will encounter minor resistance at $97,300, which should provide no major opposition as the premier cryptocurrency is largely tipped to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/bitcoin-resets-open-interest-targets-100000-after-holding-key-support-details\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> break above $100,000<\/a> sooner or later.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, BTC\u2019s daily trading volume, valued at $31.98 billion, is down by 41.27% indicating a decline in traders\u2019 participation and general market activity.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin (BTC) experienced a rather turbulent end to November, reaching a local bottom of $90,796 on Tuesday.
