 Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView tracked over 3% BTC price gains on the day, with Bitcoin breaking $27,000 for the first time in September.
 With the Wall Street open around the corner, market participants eyed “momentum” returning among Bitcoin bulls.
 “Bitcoin price breaks the barrier at $26,800 and attacks the highs at $27,200,” Michaël van de Poppe, founder and CEO of trading firm Eight, summarized. 
 <blockquote>
 “Trend looks like to be upwards from here, as altcoins are also waking up. Still the best period to buy your assets.”
 </blockquote>
 Van de Poppe uploaded his latest analytics chart to X (formerly Twitter), showing the area of resistance now necessary for a reclaim.

 Monitoring resource Material Indicators meanwhile revealed daily buy signals on its proprietary trading instruments.
 “Bulls seem to have mustered some momentum since the D candle open,” part of accompanying commentary read.

 Elsewhere, a cautious Daan Crypto Trades flagged ballooning open <a rel="dofollow" title="interest" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/interest.html">interest</a>, which returned to levels last seen after the brief BTC <a rel="dofollow" title="price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">price</a> gains that followed asset manager Grayscale’s legal victory against United States regulators.

 #Bitcoin Open Interest has been ramping up like crazy these past few hours. Up +$850M in hours. This can be an issue if spot bid disappears which could cause for a full retrace similar to before.

 Trader and analyst Rekt Capital meanwhile demanded that bulls win back higher levels and hold them into the September monthly close.
 “Soon going to revisit ~$27100 (black),” he forecast on the day alongside a chart. 
 <blockquote>
 “This level acted as support earlier this year and could turn into new resistance this month, unless $BTC reclaims it with a Monthly Close above black.”

 With the Fed’s decision on <a rel="dofollow" title="interest" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/interest.html">interest</a> rates looming on Sept. 20, the macro conversation focused on the build-up to the event.

 The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) showed continued strength on the day despite assumptions that <a rel="dofollow" title="interest" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/interest.html">interest</a> rates would not rise later in the week.
 The DXY hovered above 105, having broken through that level for the first time since mid-March.
 Bitcoin, traditionally inversely correlated to the Index, nonetheless showed no signs of weakness.
 “Bitcoin hit $27,000, while the DXY is above 105,” James Straten, research and data analyst at crypto insights firm CryptoSlate, noted alongside a comparative chart.

 “The last time DXY was trading at 105 was March when Bitcoin was trading at less than $20,000. The time before that was Q4 2022, #Bitcoin was trading $17,000.”
