Bitcoin could be on track for a significant pump based on a key technical indicator used by crypto analysts that flashed ahead of former President Donald Trump’s upcoming speech in Nashville. How high can Bitcoin’s price rise in the near term?

Bitcoin’s (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/bitcoin-price">BTC</a>) price could see significant bullish momentum based on hash ribbons, a popular indicator tracking two moving averages of hashrate, the estimated combined processing power miners dedicate to the network.
As Cointelegraph reported, the hash ribbons <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-massive-rally-buy-signal-1st-time-year">printed a buy signal on the daily chart</a> for the first time in a year on July 24.
Adding to the bullish momentum, the hash ribbons indicator has now printed another buy signal on the five-day chart, according to popular crypto analyst Titan of Crypto.
The analyst <a href="https://x.com/Washigorira/status/1816761256277106697/photo/1" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">wrote</a> in a July 26 X post:
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “After the Hash Ribbons indicator flashed a buy signal on the daily chart, it’s now showing a Buy Signal on the 5-day chart, which is even more significant. Out of 8 past occurrences, this has resulted in a massive pump.”

The buy signal flashed ahead of former <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-price-rebounds-united-states-donald-trump-conference-nashville-btc">President Donald Trump’s speech</a> in Nashville, which could be part of Bitcoin’s recovery. Bitcoin’s price rose 4.3% and recovered most of its losses from the week as traders eagerly anticipated Trump’s speech at the <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/political-undertones-trump-bitcoin-2024-nashville">Bitcoin 2024 conference</a>.
Moreover, the Bitcoin chart’s moving average convergence/divergence (MACD) has just printed a bullish cross, which suggests more upside momentum, according to pseudonymous trader Mikybull.

 “Bitcoin has finally witnessed a MACD bullish cross on a 3-day chart, further validating this setup. The massive bear squeezes incoming folks!”

Despite the bullish chart pattern, Bitcoin’s price needs to breach above the key $71,500 mark to have a chance at a new all-time high, <a href="https://x.com/rektcapital/status/1816834762142560394" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">wrote</a> popular analyst Rekt Capital in a July 26 X post:
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “Bitcoin successfully dipped to $65,000 and rebounded. Now let’s see if Bitcoin now rallies to $71,500. Bitcoin has an entire long weekend to do it.”

But Bitcoin still faces significant resistance at the $68,500 mark first. A move above this level would liquidate over $560 million worth of leveraged short positions, according to CoinGlass <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/pro/futures/LiquidationMap" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">data</a>.

Short Bitcoin liquidations would surpass $1 billion at the $70,000 psychological mark.
At the same time, some traders believe that Bitcoin is facing an “impulsive upside” and that it could still <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-traders-warn-btc-price-dip-62k-even-lower">risk falling to the $62,000 mark</a>, warned popular trader Crypto Ed in a July 26 X <a href="https://x.com/Crypto_Ed_NL/status/1816721787154989216" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">post</a>:

 “I expected a corrective bounce, followed by another leg lower towards 62k and maybe even lower.”
