Crypto Expert Says $160,000 Still In The Works

Bitcoin may be setting up for another major push toward six-figure prices after reclaiming a key bullish pattern and ending a period of repeated downside deviations. According to well-known crypto analyst Rekt Capital, the recent move puts BTC back in position to aim for the $160,000 target, provided it can hold a crucial support level and break through evolving resistance.

While short-term pullbacks are still possible, the broader technical picture remains intact. Historical price behavior suggests Bitcoin is still in a strong upward trend, but time and price pressures could soon force a decision point for the market.

Bitcoin Bull Flag Breakout Revives Long-Term Bullish Outlook

Rekt Capital’s latest analysis highlights that Bitcoin not only reclaimed its Bull Flag pattern but has positioned itself above it. This is an essential shift because a few weeks ago, BTC failed to confirm its breakout when it couldn’t hold the Bull Flag top. That earlier miss left the pattern unresolved and kept the market uncertain about the next big move.

Key Resistance Levels That Stand Between BTC And $160,000

Despite a recent -9% dip, Bitcoin remains in what Rekt Capital calls “Price Discovery Uptrend 2.” This phase, which follows historical price tendencies, has stayed intact because the dip never broke the uptrend’s structure or confirmed a breakdown. However, the move into Week 6 of this uptrend is notable; historically, Weeks 5 and 6 have often been the “danger zone” for local tops.

While history points to a potential pause here, the unique nature of this cycle may allow for an extension. Still, the decisive factor is now price, not just time. The analyst points to resistance that first appeared around $124,000 in July but has since evolved into a dynamic barrier closer to $126,000.

Breaking this level in the next one to two weeks could trigger a sharp acceleration in the trend, putting the $160,000 roadmap back in focus. On the other hand, failure to clear $126,000 would create both time and price confluence for a pullback, which Rekt Capital calls “Price Discovery Correction 2.”

Such a correction would not end the long-term bullish case but would delay the next leg up. Until then, all eyes are on these key levels: $119,000 for support and $126,000 for breakout. How Bitcoin handles them could decide whether the grand roadmap to $160,000 stays on track in the weeks ahead.
