Wow. Bitcoin (BTC) has continued to rip higher after the daily close on Friday. As of the time of writing this article, the leading cryptocurrency is trading for $9,200 \u2014 up nearly $2,000 since the weekly low at $7,350 established yesterday. This represents a 25% move in just around 36 hours. Crazy, right?<\/p>\n
This is Bitcoin’s second large leg higher in under 24 hours. Previously, on Friday morning, the cryptocurrency surged by $800 from $7,700 to $8,500 in a surprise pump, which liquidated $150 million worth of shorts.<\/p>\n
This move liquidated $80 million worth of BitMEX short positions, according to cryptocurrency analytics provider Skew.com.<\/p>\n

Traders are still coming to terms with this move. But, there are some preliminary analyses of this massive surge upward. Mayne noted<\/a> that all things considered, the level which BTC is trading at should act as resistance, adding that he is definitely “looking for a potential pullback here to buy the dip.”<\/p>\n $BTC<\/a><\/p>\n There is a good level here that SHOULD act as resistance.
