Bitcoin price will rally above the high at $51,000

The Bitcoin (BTC) exchange rate has been on a positive run as the price broke out above the high of $48,000. Although buyers failed to sustain the bullish momentum above the $48,000 high, the BTC price fell back to support at $47,000.

Since October 1, buyers have made a concerted effort to resume upside momentum, but the cryptocurrency faces rejection at the recent high.

The bottom line is that bitcoin will continue to rise as long as the cryptocurrency's price remains above its moving averages. For example, if the price breaks through resistance at $48,000 and the bullish momentum continues, the BTC price will rally above the high at $51,000. However, the uptrend is likely to be threatened at the $52,000 resistance zone. Bitcoin will fall back below support at $48,000 if it is rejected at the recent high. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $47,664.
