Bitcoin rose to its highest level in six weeks on Wednesday, as the U.S. Dollar continued to weaken versus several G7 currencies.

Bitcoin


Bitcoin (BTC) was back above $20,000 during today’s session, as crypto bulls pushed prices to a multi-week high while the U.S. dollar lost strength.


Following a low of $19,278.74 yesterday, BTC/USD raced to an intraday high of $20,702.72 on Wednesday.


Today’s move sees the world’s largest cryptocurrency hit its strongest point since September 13, when prices were close to $23,000.

Looking at the chart, Wednesday’s surge comes as bullish pressure was finally able to intensify, moving beyond the resistance of $19,600 in the process.


The 14-day relative strength index (RSI) also moved higher, breaking out of a ceiling of 53.00, on its way to a current reading of 63.75.

Ethereum


In addition to bitcoin, ethereum (ETH) also made significant gains on Wednesday, rising above $1,500 in the process.

Should today’s momentum continue, we could see bulls attempt to hit a ceiling of $1,650.
