Bitcoin completes month unlike any other
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView confirms the single biggest BTC price gain ever seen in a single monthly candle — $26,400.
The November monthly close came in at around $96,400, also marking a new historic record for BTC/USD.
Bitcoin finished the month up by more than 37%, making November its second-best month of 2024 so far.

Responding, economist Carl Menger said that it was “just the beginning” of Bitcoin’s journey.

“Monthly scale breakout confirmation,” popular analyst Aksel Kibar continued in his own X post.
Others furthered the debate about when Bitcoin might reach $100,000. As Cointelegraph reported, some, including Kibar, consider that level neither technically nor psychologically significant.
“I view the fact that we haven’t broken the mystical $100k level yet as a positive for the strength and sustainability of this run,” trading resource Material Indicators wrote in part of its latest exchange order book liquidity analysis.
“It will be interesting to see if $100k comes as a Christmas gift, or if the gift comes in the form of a correction that gives the market a $BTC flash sale.”

Analyzing low timeframes, popular trader Skew flagged $98,500 as the key level to break for another attempt at breaking into six figures.
“Developing uptrend so far – higher lows – sustained systematic uptrend. Momentum reset + monthly open pump,” he summarized about the 4-hour chart.
“Going into next week & weekly open we have a lot to play with. HH above $98.5K would be a trigger to push $100K supply once again.”

“Nothing to see here. Just your average weekend price action,” fellow trader Daan Crypto Trades added.
“Expecting volatility to pick back up after futures re-open.”
