Bitcoin (BTC) re-targeted $64,000 on October 1 after BTC monthly price hit a new record in September.
BTC price defies “Rektember” with a 7% rise.
BTC/USD bounced back after briefly falling below $63,000, according to data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView.
At the close of the month in September, the price of BTC was up 7.3% at $63,300, according to data from monitoring resource CoinGlass. This is Bitcoin’s 9th best month ever.
Despite failing to find support after breaking above $65,000 last week, the bulls nonetheless held on to the key medium-term trendline in the form of the 21-week simple moving average (SMA).
Doing so was important to avoid “opening the door to a retest” of the lower range, according to Keith Alan, co-founder of trading resource Material Indicators.
“Losing the 200-day moving average is not a good sign, but holding the 20-week moving average (for now) is a good sign. Losing both would be a sign of weakness,” he said in a previous post on X.
Popular trader Daan Crypto Trades noted changes in order book liquidity. These amounts reached $62,700 and $67,000, respectively, marking support and resistance levels.
“We are testing the daily 200 moving average after it breaks once more.” He went on to agree with Alan.
“We’ve had a hard time maintaining that level so far this year. Whether $BTC is trading up or down is a good mid/high time frame momentum and strength indicator.”
On lower days, fellow trader Roman was among those confident the uptrend would continue.
“There is a nice uptrend forming in H4 at the moment,” he told
As Cointelegraph reports, these scenarios often precede BTC price increases.
“Instead of a 1D deviation, we expect some upward movement/cutoff to provide upward consolidation,” Roman predicted.
Bitcoin plunge buying plan begins in earnest
Others have suggested “buying the dip” as an appropriate short-term strategy, despite progress so far above $65,000.

“Bitcoin has officially hit a new high, closing the week above $65,000,” said Scott Melker, a trader, analyst and podcaster known as “The Wolf of Every Street.”

“I think we are in a new upward trend. This means that the dip is for buying. In that sense, if we get a retest at $60.5-61.3K, there will be interest before we test ATH.”
