Crypto analyst Celal has predicted that the Bitcoin price could hit a new all-time high (ATH) of $145,000. The analyst also provided a timeline for when the leading crypto could hit this milestone. When The Bitcoin Price Could Hit $145,000 In an X post, Celal stated that the Bitcoin price will rally to $145,000 between October and November. His accompanying chart showed that this rally could happen as BTC’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) picks up and hits overbought, rising to 90. The chart also suggested that the leading crypto may already be forming a bottom as it eyes this rally to a new ATH. Related Reading: The Bear Market Divergence That Shows What’s Really Going On With Bitcoin This Bitcoin price prediction comes as BTC continues to struggle to hold above the psychological $70,000 level. The leading crypto is under pressure due to the U.S.-Iran war, with U.S. President Donald Trump threatening to escalate things if Iran doesn’t open the Strait of Hormuz. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez noted that it is currently a waiting game as the Bitcoin price is at a crossroads. He said that BTC is stuck in a “no-trade zone” and that right now, the area between $70,685 and $65,636 are the most important spot on the chart. The analyst further revealed that over 1.72 million BTC have been transacted around this range, meaning that “buyers and sellers are digging in their heels.” Martinez added that there won’t be a big move for the Bitcoin price until it either breaks above $70,685 or falls below $65,636. Crypto analyst Ardi stated that BTC is still in a bear market and that the rally over the past few weeks was because of short covering. As such, the leading crypto is still at risk of a larger decline. The Economic Backdrop Is Bad For BTC Crypto analyst Colin stated that the economic backdrop is bad for the Bitcoin price, with oil prices rising and the Fed unlikely to lower rates anytime soon. He also noted that this is bad for BTC, considering that it is further up the risk curve than stocks. Based on this, Colin remarked that an eventual breakdown from the bear flag, which it has been trading inside since February. Related Reading: How Low Can Bitcoin Price Go?

He also noted that BTC has been in a bear market since October 5 and is only five months into it. Colin said that this means there is likely further downside since a typical bear market lasts for 12 months. At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $68,800, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com

Bitcoin is once again testing a critical level that could shape its next major move. With price action returning to a previously contested support and resistance zone, attention is now shifting toward a defined set of upside targets that could come into play if the level continues to hold. Bitcoin’s S/R Zone Retest Signals Strength In Market Structure According to market technician Johnathan Carter, Bitcoin’s weekly chart is currently revisiting a key zone that previously acted as resistance before being broken. That same level is now functioning as support, marking a classic support/resistance flip. Related Reading: Where Is Bitcoin Price Headed Next? This Level Will Decide Everything The chart he posted shows that Bitcoin’s price has pulled back into this zone after a strong upward expansion, with buyers stepping in to defend it. This reaction is not occurring randomly. The highlighted region, positioned around the mid-$60,000 range, aligns with a former breakout area, reinforcing its technical importance. The analyst’s observation centers on the idea that this retest is a structural confirmation. The ability of bulls to maintain price above this level suggests that the breakout remains valid and that the broader upward trend is intact. Further supporting this outlook is the large inverse head and shoulders pattern visible on the weekly timeframe. This formation reflects a transition from bearish to bullish control. The neckline of this pattern coincides closely with the current S/R zone, making the ongoing retest even more significant. After breaking above this neckline, Bitcoin advanced sharply before pulling back to retest it. The chart also illustrates a rounded retest structure, indicating a controlled pullback. This type of price action often points to accumulation, where buyers gradually regain control without allowing the price to break lower. Four Key Price Targets Come Into Focus With the support zone holding and the retest developing constructively, attention shifts to the next potential price objectives outlined by the analyst. The first level to monitor is $95,000, which represents a near-term resistance area based on recent price structure. A move into this region would confirm continuation from the current base. Beyond that, $125,000 stands as the next target, aligning with a previous consolidation range seen during Bitcoin’s earlier rally phase. Clearing this level would signal sustained bullish momentum. The third target is $150,000, a psychological and structural milestone that reflects an extension of the current trend. At this stage, market participation typically increases as momentum builds.

This level represents a full realization of the projected move following the inverse head and shoulders breakout, as illustrated by the trajectory on the chart. The current price behavior suggests that the market is in the process of confirming the breakout. With buyers actively defending the retested zone and no clear breakdown in structure, the bullish framework remains in place. As long as this support holds, the path toward higher levels remains open, keeping all four targets—$95,000, $125,000, $150,000, and $200,000—firmly in focus.
