Bitcoin: Analyst Eyes $91K-$98K Pause Levels

Bitcoin maintains upward momentum with the next pause zones at $91K and $98K according to trader Michaël van de Poppe.

The higher-timeframe structure shows no signs of reversal as price action stays above key moving averages. Historical bull cycles confirm that once BTC clears prior resistance clusters, momentum often extends until those measured targets are reached.

Technical confluence on the 4h chart shows price at $86246.51 holding above the EMA50 at $81395.02 and EMA200 at $76532.87. With RSI(14) at 74.79 marking overbought conditions and MACD printing a bullish golden cross at 1878.56, the move tests the upper Bollinger Band resistance at $88695.35. A healthy retracement toward the 50-EMA support at $81395.02 remains probable before continuation toward the first pause level.

This setup aligns with current BTC price prediction models that factor ongoing institutional flows into the next resistance band.
