Bitcoin To Rally To $144,000 As Bull Flag Pattern Forms – Analyst

Bitcoin prices are currently hovering above $107,000 following a bullish trading week during which the premier cryptocurrency gained by 4.89%. Interestingly, this recent price rally has translated into a 1.06% gain on the monthly chart suggesting a hinting at a gradual shift in market control back to the bulls after several weeks of descending consolidation.

Notably, renowned market analyst with pseudonym Merlijn The Trader backs this emerging bullish momentum, having identified a bull flag pattern on the Bitcoin daily chart, alongside a positive MACD crossover.

Bull Flag Pattern Signals Strong Upside Potential For Bitcoin

The bull flag is a classic bullish continuation pattern indicating a price rally is likely to persist despite ongoing consolidation. As seen in the chart shared by Merlijn, this bullish chart pattern begins with a sharp price rally i.e. the flagpole which is seen when Bitcoin kickstarted an uptrend in early April with prices climbing aggressively from around $74,000 to over $110,000 in late May.

The flagpole is followed by the flag/pennant which is a period of price consolidation that forms a downward or sideways-sloping channel. This price movement is from when Bitcoin reached a new all-time high on May 22 till now with prices largely consolidating within a descending channel between $101,000 – $110,000. The flag is usually interpreted as brief cooling-off period before momentum resumes in the direction of the original trend.

Interestingly, recent candle movement shows a breakout from the bull flag upper boundary indicating the uptrend may soon resume. Based on Merlijn’s analysis, if the breakout is confirmed with a decisive close, the measured move for the new price rally, which is usually similar to the length of the initial flagpole points toward a target of $144,000 i.e. a potential 34% on current market prices.

In supporting this bullish case, the market analyst has also observed a recent crossover on the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. Notably, the MACD line (blue) has crossed above the signal line (orange) from below, often interpreted as a buy signal by traders. Interestingly, this marks the first positive crossover in June and comes when Bitcoin tests the upper band of the bull flag.

With both price action and technical indicators hinting at an impending breakout, Merlijn nudges investors to front-run this rally or risk FOMO once the move is fully underway. However, all market participants are advised to do their due diligence before making investment decisions.

Bitcoin Price Overview

At the time of writing, Bitcoin exchanges hands at $107,485 after a minor 0.03% gain in the last day.

Bitcoin ETFs Post Second Straight Week Of $500 Million Outflow — Details

The US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs (exchange-traded funds) recorded their second consecutive week of significant outflows over the last five-day trading period. This recent run of disappointing performances reflects the ongoing shift in investor sentiment in the United States. Over the past year, strong inflows into the US Bitcoin ETF market have constantly been associated with positive action for the BTC price. Fittingly, the price of Bitcoin has been consolidating over the past few weeks, struggling to pick up any real momentum. Bitcoin ETFs Record Fourth Consecutive Outflow Day According to the latest market data , the US Bitcoin ETFs registered a total daily outflow of $62.77 million on Friday, February 21. This latest round of withdrawals marked the fourth straight day (and the eighth day in the last nine trading days) that the crypto-based products would witness a net capital outflow. The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (with the ticker GBTC) accounted for a larger percentage of Friday’...

Bitcoin Goes Official: Texas Becomes 1st US State With BTC Reserve

Everything is big in Texas, many would say. Today, the state is looking past its current state of finances by adding Bitcoin to its coffers–and making things bigger in terms of its economic implications. Texas became the first US state to establish a crypto reserve . On March 7, 2025, legislators passed Senate Bill 21, which gives the green light to the state to direct public funds toward Bitcoin and other digital assets. The action has elicited both support and concern, with some viewing it as a prudent financial hedge and others warning of potential pitfalls. A Push For Bitcoin In The Lone Star State For months, Texas has been seeing increasing favor for the idea of a Bitcoin reserve. Senator Charles Schwertner introduced SB 778, a measure that proposes establishing a strategic stockpile. Including the top crypto asset into the state’s financial reserves was meant to help cushion inflation and economic uncertainty. Texas officials, especially Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, wh...
