Based on the existence of a volume shelf on the BTCUSDT daily chart, Dean tips the crypto market leader to soon attain a $131,000 market valuation.<\/p>\n<p>By way of explanation, a volume shelf refers to a price level where a significant amount of trading activity\/volume has occurred. In the chart above, this level of trading is indicated by the horizontal bars on the right side of the chart. A volume shelf tends to act as a strong resistance or support zone because many traders are assumed to have bought or sold at this level.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/Gx1pwzKXgAAhL1Q?format=jpg&amp;name=large\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"1835\" height=\"850\" \/><\/p>\n<p>According to Donald Dean\u2019s analysis, Bitcoin is currently hovering around a volume shelf between $116,000 &#8211; $118,000, which has been identified as a potential launch area. If Bitcoin can consolidate decisively above this range, it suggests that this level has enough buying interest to potentially act as a springboard for the next leg up.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Dean predicts that this accumulation phase would provide the momentum needed to propel BTC toward the 1.618 Fibonacci extension level, a key technical milestone known as the \u201cgolden ratio.\u201d This level, positioned around $131,000, represents the next major price target for the Bitcoin market, signaling a potential 12.93% gain on the present market prices.\n<\/p>\n<h2><b>Bitcoin Market Overview<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $116,756, after a minor decline of\u00a0 0.02% over the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, market trading volume has fallen by 20.97% and is valued at $55.24 billion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coincodex.com\/crypto\/bitcoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Data from CoinCodex<\/a> indicates that market sentiment remains strongly bullish, with the Fear &amp; Greed Index at 67. Despite this optimism, analysts expect BTC to hold within its current range, projecting prices of $117,167 in five days and $115,980 in thirty days, and a potential dip to $112,688 over the next three months.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/AwsTrwjM\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"1563\" height=\"926\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the steep corrections seen in late July, the Bitcoin market made a modest recovery in the past week, rising by 2.73% according to data from CoinMarketCap.
