Bitcoin price long-term prediction: bullish

On September 29, the Bitcoin price moved above the moving average lines and remained above them. On September 30, the cryptocurrency retested the 21-day SMA support and stayed above the moving averages.

Today, bullish momentum has pushed the price to a high of $121,106, approaching the $124,000 barrier. If buyers break through the $124,000 resistance, the largest cryptocurrency could rise to a high of $141,000. Otherwise, Bitcoin will be forced to trade within a range above the moving average lines but below the $121,000 high, where the BTC price previously failed to advance. Meanwhile, the price is struggling to stay above the $120,000 support level.
