Bitcoin prices could rise by 25%
Market analyst Caleb Fransen (Twitter user) offered a final analysis, which also considered BTC momentum. He posted this chart, which included the Williams%R oscillator. This momentum indicator measures overbought or oversold levels.

Fransen says that when there is an oscillation between “oversold”, and “overbought”, this indicates a momentum thrust. This event has happened six times since January 2020 for Bitcoin.
Fransen said,
The average 1-month return after the weekly thrust is +25%. Williams%R is currently attempting to complete the momentum thrust over four weeks. If (big “if”) Bitcoin is able to secure a strong weekly close, I will be optimistic.
The total cryptocurrency market is now worth $1.999 trillion, and Bitcoin’s dominance rate at 42%.
