 <p><strong>Could ‘Uptober’ Bring Profits for MKR, AAVE, RUNE, and INJ Alongside Bitcoin?<br>October often witnesses a surge in Bitcoin’s performance, potentially paving the way for gains in MKR, AAVE, RUNE, INJ, and other alternative cryptocurrencies.</strong></p> 
 <p>While Bitcoin enjoyed an impressive 80% rise during the initial two quarters of 2023, it experienced a setback in the third quarter, culminating in an approximately 11% decline by the end of September. However, there is an optimistic aspect for the bullish investors, as September marked the first positive monthly closure since 2016.</p> 
 <p>In October, buyers will aim to capitalise on this growing momentum, given the historically bullish nature of the month. According to data from CoinGlass, only two years, 2014 and 2018, have witnessed negative monthly returns for Bitcoin in October since 2013. Although past performance does not indicate future outcomes, traders can use this data as a valuable reference point for crafting their strategies.</p>

 <p>Bitcoin’s recent resilience has sparked interest in altcoins and encouraged some to challenge their overhead resistance levels, signalling the potential onset of a robust recovery. Should Bitcoin extend its relief rally to $28,000, this bullish momentum could gain even more traction.</p> 
 <p>However, it’s important to note that not all altcoins are poised for a significant upward trajectory. The cryptocurrencies demonstrating strength are the ones likely to lead the recovery. In this <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Category Analysis" href="https://thebittimes.com/analysis.html">Analysis</a>, we will examine the charts of the top 5 cryptocurrencies that have the potential to outperform soon.</p> 
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="bitcoin-btc-price-analysis">Bitcoin (BTC) price analysis</h2> 
 <p>Bitcoin has been trading above the moving averages since Sep. 28, which is a positive sign. This shows that the advantage is gradually tilting in favour of the buyers.</p>

 <p>The bears are trying to stall the rally near $27,500, but the bulls have not given up much ground. This shows that every minor dip is being purchased. This increases the odds of a break above $27,500. The BTC/USDT pair could retest the crucial overhead resistance at $28,143. This level may again attract aggressive selling by the bears.</p> 
 <p>If the price turns sharply from $28,143, the pair could retest the 20-day exponential moving average ($26,630). A strong bounce off this level could kick the price above $28,143. The pair may subsequently climb to $30,000.</p> 
 <p>This bullish view will be negated soon if the price turns down and dives below the solid support at $26,000.</p>

 <p>The 4-hour chart shows that the pair is taking support at the 20-EMA. This indicates that the bulls are trying to take charge. However, the bears are unlikely to give up easily and will try to halt the recovery in the zone between $27,300 and $27,500. The sellers must yank the price below the 20-EMA to seize control.</p> 
 <p>Conversely, if bulls pierce the overhead resistance at $27,500, it will pave the way for a possible rally to $28,143. This level may witness a tough battle between the buyers and sellers.</p>
