    Prediction of the Week 

    BTC price forms new support at $16.8K as Bitcoin lures ‘mega whales’

    As 2023 begins, Bitcoin keeps experiencing a lack of volatility, leading to debates among traders over the timing of a breakout. The narrow trading range has been in place since the FTX saga in November.

    Trading platform Trend Rider examined the one-week chart to flag $16,800 as the current 100-week point of control (PoC) — the price level generating the largest volume in the specific period. 

    “~16.8K is the new 100 Weekly POC for Bitcoin. In simple terms on the last 100 weeks this is the level where most volume has been traded, which is creating a potential bottom formation,” noted the crypto firm.
