Bitcoin is once again at the center of bold predictions as technical indicators flash signs of a potential breakout. Trader Tardigrade, a widely followed analyst on X, has identified a classic “golden cross” formation on the BTC daily chart, a bullish crossover where the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) rises above the 200-day SMA. Historically, this pattern signals the beginning of major uptrends.
This is the fourth golden cross Bitcoin has posted since 2023. The previous three saw price gains of 49%, 125%, and 68%. Applying these historical averages, Tardigrade projects a conservative upside target of $152,000, about 44% higher than today’s price of $106,802.
Under stronger market conditions, however, the analyst sees Bitcoin potentially soaring to $229,000, a move that would represent a 118% rally.
These predictions are rooted in more than just chart patterns. Bitcoin is already up roughly 47% from its April lows and has rallied 656% since the current market cycle began in late 2022. For traders watching closely, the golden cross is not just a pattern; it’s a potential roadmap.
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) Technical Resistance Near $107K Remains Key
As of now, Bitcoin price prediction remains neutral as BTC is trading near a critical resistance zone at $107,270. This level has acted as a ceiling multiple times over the past two weeks, and a breakout of this level can turn the price forecast bullish.
The current 1-hour chart shows a symmetrical triangle formation, with price compressing between rising support and declining resistance lines.
The 50-period EMA at $105,853 has turned upward, confirming short-term bullish momentum. MACD readings support this thesis as the indicator line crosses above the signal, though there’s no aggressive divergence. A recent green candle with a long upper wick suggests sellers are active just above current levels, meaning a breakout will require volume and conviction.

The candlestick structure shows higher lows forming, but without follow-through confirmation, it’s still a coin toss between a breakout and a reversal. A close above $107,270 would put bulls in the driver’s seat. Failure could send BTC back toward support at $105,437 or even $104,532.
BTC/USD Trade Strategy: Breakout or Pullback?
Whether you’re a novice or seasoned trader, this setup presents an actionable opportunity:
- Bullish Entry: Above $107,270 close with volume
- Targets: $108,349 and $109,254
- Stop-Loss: Below $105,400
- Bearish Setup: Close below $105,437
- Target: $104,532
- Stop: Above $106,200
With momentum aligning behind the golden cross and Bitcoin nearing an inflection point, this is a critical juncture for bulls and bears alike. A confirmed breakout could validate Tardigrade’s $229K thesis, while a rejection may delay upside for weeks.
