Crypto analyst Josh Rager says Bitcoin bulls have yet to shift the momentum in their favor.
He’s looking for the price of BTC to push above $8,675.
“Currently Bitcoin has had a solid move today.
With a push up to $8,675 to tap that high volume mode (arrow) a break above this area would be bullish. With preferred break and close above $8,750.
Not out the woods yet until price closes above this area.”
