The sudden surge closed a phase of losses for Bitcoin traders and investors, who observed as the pair sank around $9,580 this week. Bitcoin price persists around 4.7% down as against the price it started with last weekend. A trend which a major analyst thinks could switch upside.

Tom Lee, a senior market analyst at Fundstrat Global Advisors, on twitter, highlighted next week’s forecasted interest rate cut in the United States as an influencing determinant for the price of BTC to increase. Preceding weekends have flickered a bearish move, he observed, but this Federal Reserve runs should yield the opposing result if stability comes to the currency.

“So expect Bitcoin to break the pattern this weekend and rise this weekend,” he summarized.

Others were more conservative. Crypto market commentator Josh Rager said he was indifferent about the recent trends of price in BTC as long as Bitcoin traded between $9,690 and $10,586. With the bullish or bearish pointer only happening outside that hallway.

“If you wanted to see a potential scenario for a lower-high & lower-low it would likely top somewhere near the weekly resistance,” he wrote in a Friday social media update.

However, on the twitter account of an analyst PlanB, they accentuated data revealing that the bullish price of Bitcoin corresponds with the lows in mining difficulty.

In a recent report by analyst, miners are going through difficulty to validate blocks of transaction, as the value hits a new high this month. Though Bitcoin’s 2019 price expansion started at a point when the difficulty wore out.

That figure is in line with another prediction from hedge fund Pantera Capital, the CEO who in an interview predicted that Bitcoin could surge up to $356,000 in 2022.
