Bitcoin bulls are chasing a new year-to-date high. Cointelegraph explains what is behind the BTC price move.
Bitcoin price is up 6.28% over the last 24 hours and hit an intra-day high at $48,200 on Feb. 9. Given this performance, technical indicators, rallying spot Bitcoin ETF shares and on-chain data show that Bitcoin (BTC) has the strength to revisit the post-Bitcoin ETF approval high above $49,000.
Bitcoin’s monthly chart shows that the SuperTrend indicator flashed a bullish signal when it reversed from red to green and moved below the price at $44,600 on Feb. 8.
