 2. Technical Analysis 

 Key Indicators 
- **SMA (50):** $95,789.68 
  The 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) is acting as a strong support level, confirming the bullish trend. 
- **EMA (50):** $96,194.72 
  The 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is trending upward, reinforcing the bullish sentiment. 
- **RSI (14):** 62.18 
  The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is in the neutral-to-bullish zone, indicating room for further upside before overbought conditions are reached. 
- **MACD:** 420.85 
  The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is above the signal line, signaling continued bullish momentum. 

 Additional Indicators 
- **Fibonacci Retracement:** 
  The recent pullback found support near the 38.2% Fibonacci level ($95,500), suggesting a strong bullish continuation. The next resistance levels are at $98,500 (50%) and $100,000 (61.8%). 
- **Bollinger Bands:** 
  The price is trading near the upper Bollinger Band ($98,200), indicating potential overbought conditions. However, a breakout above this level could lead to further gains.

 3. Trading Strategy 

 Recommendations 
- **Position:** Buy 
- **Entry Point:** $97,500 (near the 50 EMA support) 
- **Stop Loss:** $95,500 (below the 38.2% Fibonacci level) 
- **Take Profit:** $102,000 (Elliott Wave target and psychological resistance) 
- **Position Size:** 1-2% of portfolio (depending on risk tolerance) 
- **Risk/Reward Ratio:** 1:3 

 Rationale 
The bullish trend is supported by multiple technical indicators, including the SMA, EMA, MACD, and Fibonacci levels. The RSI suggests there is still room for upward movement, and the Elliott Wave analysis points to a potential target of $102,000. The stop loss is placed below a key support level to minimize risk.

 4. Fundamental Analysis 

 Recent Market Developments 
While there are no specific news events impacting the market as of May 8, 2025, the overall sentiment remains positive due to continued institutional adoption and regulatory clarity. Major financial institutions have increased their exposure to Bitcoin, and the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in key markets has provided additional liquidity. 

 Price Forecasts 
Analysts predict that Bitcoin could reach $120,000 by the end of 2025, driven by macroeconomic factors such as inflation hedging and the increasing use of Bitcoin as a store of value. The halving event in 2024 has also contributed to the long-term bullish outlook. 

 Institutional Investments 
Institutional interest in Bitcoin remains strong, with reports of large-scale purchases by hedge funds and corporations. This institutional inflow is expected to support higher price levels in the coming months.
