This is the nature of price action around the USD 30k psychological level.</p><p>Compare 2 periods when the price of bitcoin exceeded USD 30k.</p><p>In April, the price met strong resistance only USD 500 higher, and a week after the breakdown of USD 30k, it rushed down.</p><p>And now is the second period, which began on June 21 and continues to last. The level of immediate resistance above the psychological level is already higher — at around 31k, and the price of bitcoin has not fallen (except for short-term punctures) below USD 30k for almost 3 weeks.</p><figure><img src="https://fxopen.com/blog/en/content/images/2023/07/12j1.png" alt="Market Analysis: Standard Chartered Predicts Bitcoin at $120k" loading="lazy" width="2000" height="1099" srcset="https://fxopen.com/blog/en/content/images/size/w600/2023/07/12j1.png 600w, https://fxopen.com/blog/en/content/images/size/w1000/2023/07/12j1.png 1000w, https://fxopen.com/blog/en/content/images/size/w1600/2023/07/12j1.png 1600w, https://fxopen.com/blog/en/content/images/size/w2400/2023/07/12j1.png 2400w" sizes="(min-width: 720px) 720px" /></figure><p>The comparison shows that the bulls are getting more of an edge at the USD 30k level, in other words, the market is shifting in favor of demand forces. And this is optimistic for Standard Chartered&apos;s USD 120k bitcoin price prediction.</p>
