Big Players Buying?

-Look at that CVD (cumulative volume delta bars), blatant signs of absorption

Target hit, took a quick short low leverage for scalp
Excited at $10198
I often will use High volume nodes for a quick support or resistance for scalp play Will usually reject off or break above then back down for a scalp trade
Long-Term Trend-lines
Indeed, $10,000 marks an important psychological level. This is third time the price has broken above $10,000 in February. This time following a healthy pull-back. The FOMO buying of traders and retailers seems on the horizon again.
In the likelihood of bullish continuation, the targets for the bulls is around $10,800 and $11,300-11,700.
On long-term trends, a symmetrical triangle seems to be forming with Bitcoin price with immediate resistance and support at $10,600-10,700 and $7600-8,000 respectively. A break-out above the resistance could be strongly bullish.
