After a significant retest, Bitcoin’s price movement turned upward, indicating that $50,000 may now be able to hold as support.

If that happens, and the $51,000 barrier is broken, expert Michal van de Poppe believes the odds favour an upward impulsive move.

“If Bitcoin breaks out of this $51,000 barrier, likely, we’ll just get one vertical candle towards $58,000, or perhaps $60,000,” he projects.
