Bitcoin has returned to the $20,000 area after experiencing rejection. The cryptocurrency has been displaying some strength during today’s trading session despite a spike in the U.S. dollar which signals danger for risk-on assets.

At the time of writing, BTC’s price trades at $20,300 with a 2.2% profit in the last 24 hours. Data from Material Indicators (MI) records an increase in buying pressure from Bitcoin whales with bid orders of over $1 million (brown in the chart below).
Large investors have been accumulating BTC over the past week as the cryptocurrency moved below its current levels. BTC Whales could have been preparing for bullish continuation. At the time of writing, every investor’s class except retail is jumping into BTC’s price action.

The cryptocurrency needs to break above $20,500 and continue above $22,000 to clear out any potential short-term downside risk.
Material Indicators records over $20 million in asks order for BTC’s price at around $20,500 until $22,000 alone. There is little resistance above those levels until $24,000 which stands as the next major area of resistance.
On the possibility that large investors were accumulating BTC expecting a larger move to the upside, MI wrote:
The FireCharts heat map and CVD both show that the purple class of whales which have historically had the most influence over BTC price have been trending up since the dump to $17.5k on May 18th. Too early to validate this as accumulation phase. Time will tell.
The key behind the current price action could be the U.S. dollar. The currency aggressively moved to the upside, to levels last seen in 2003, and could be about to retest previous lows.
As seen below, this could send the DXY Index to the 105 area or to its June range below 100, if these levels fail. Thus, providing some more room for BTC’s price to reclaim higher levels.
Bitcoin Indicators Suggest Bullish Continuation
Quantum Economics analyst Jan Wüstenfeld indicated that BTC’s Reserve Risk dropped to 0.001, a metric used to measure long-term holders’ conviction. The last time Bitcoin saw a Reserve Risk this low was in 2015 before it began a persistent uptrend.
