A closely watched crypto strategist believes that Bitcoin (BTC) looks poised for a quick explosion to the upside.
Pseudonymous analyst Kaleo tells his 553,400 Twitter followers that crypto Bitcoin could be preparing for a short squeeze.
“Finally, BTC looks ready to break out of the $16,000-$17,000 base range that has been stuck for the past several weeks. Start the squeeze.”
A short squeeze occurs when traders who borrow an asset at a certain price in hopes of selling at a lower price to pocket the (short) spread are forced to buy back while the trade moves against them.
Looking at the Kaleo chart, it appears that he thinks Bitcoin could rally to $18,800. At the time of writing, bitcoin is trading at $16,930, which indicates a roughly 10% uptick in the crypto-king if it hits the analyst target.
for Ethereum (ETH), the crypto strategist also believes that the top smart contract platform is poised to go up.
“Ethereum/ETH finally looks set for the next move in the ~$1400 range.
We should see some pullback and consolidation there before continuing higher.”
At the time of writing, Ethereum is worth $1,261.
The crypto strategist also keeps a close eye on the S&P 500 (SPX). According to Kaleo, the SPX appears poised to take out its resistance at 3,900 points.
Again, when SPX broke 3900 [points]Fasten seat belts. “
Traders watch the SPX because the cryptocurrency markets tend to mirror the movements of the stock market index.
At the time of writing, SPX is trading at $3,895.
