Bitcoin price is still stuck well below $35,000 but any attempt to push prices below $30,000 are bought up in minutes<\/a>. Eventually, one side will have to break, and according to a trend indicator, it could be in favor of bulls.<\/p>\n The tool, which measures the strength of a trend, suggests that the more dominant high timeframe bull trend isn’t anywhere close to finished, and it could lead to enormous upside if history repeats.<\/p>\n The Average Directional Index<\/a> isn’t as popular as some of the other tools created by J. Welles Wilder Jr.<\/a> such as the Relative Strength Index, or Parabolic SAR \u2013 two indicators widely covered here recently.<\/p>\n Each tool has a unique use, and the ADX is designed to measure the strength<\/a> of a trending asset \u2013 for example, Bitcoin.

Armed with this knowledge, here’s how it all applies to what’s going on with Bitcoin currently.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The chart above suggests that the weekly bull trend has never ended, even if bears have gained the upper hand for now. With the greater bull trend in tact, bulls still have a chance to prevent it from ending completely just yet. Past instances of the bull trend ending were more obvious and resulted in significant bearish downside.<\/p>\n The leading cryptocurrency by market cap has already experienced a sharp selloff, but the selling has stopped at $30,000 for several weeks now<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Switching to lower timeframes, the chart above shows that the short-term bear trend hasn’t finished yet, and the crypto market could spend another couple months trying to put in a bottom (green box).
