Trader Notes: With Bitcoin surging past the $100,000mark, crypto trader Bluntz Capital remains cautiously optimistic but warns of a potential pullback.
He highlighted a strong New Year's Day rally followed by another Monday pump but expressed concerns about stalling momentum.
While holding a long position, Bluntz is not fully committed and has reserves ready to capitalize on dips if they occur.
Crypto trader Kevin observed that Bitcoin has returned to the macro golden pocket, calling it a critical "make or break" moment for the asset.
Meanwhile, Benjamin Cowen, CEO and Founder of Into the Cryptoverse, shared his outlook on Bitcoin's next move based on upcoming unemployment data.
He predicts that if the unemployment rate is 4.2% or lower, Bitcoin will continue its upward trajectory.
At 4.3%, he expects a month of sideways movement before a decisive move, and at 4.4% or higher, a correction is likely.
More Crypto Online highlights $100,450 as Bitcoin's critical micro support level, which could signal a trend reversal if broken. The trader recommends accumulating near significant swing lows as a strategic approach.
