The cryptocurrency market is starting the new week on a stronger footing after a volatile session last week. Bitcoin (BTC) — the market leader — is back in the green, posting over 3% gains in the past 24 hours as the lower-timeframe chart revealing a bullish pattern, suggesting that momentum could be building for further upside.

Bump-and-Run Reversal (BARR) Pattern in Focus
On the 1-hour chart, Bitcoin’s price action appears to be forming a Bump-and-Run Reversal (BARR) pattern — a technical setup that often signals the end of a bearish cycle and the beginning of a new uptrend.
The Lead-in Phase began when BTC was rejected from its descending trendline near the $115,800 zone, driving prices lower to form a deep Bump Phase bottom around $103,529. From that low, Bitcoin has staged a sharp recovery, breaking above the downtrend resistance and later retesting it — a classic throwback move that often precedes a continuation rally.

At press time, BTC is trading near $110,343, just below its 200-hour moving average positioned at $110,396. This level is acting as an important pivot; a decisive close above it could validate the bullish breakout and mark the start of the Uphill Run Phase.
What’s Next for Bitcoin?
If Bitcoin successfully reclaims above the 200-hour MA and maintains its bullish momentum, the BARR pattern projects a potential move toward $116,400, representing an estimated 5.5% upside from current levels.
Failure to sustain above the moving average could lead to a short-term pullback, but as long as BTC holds its recent higher lows, the broader structure remains bullish.
Overall, the market sentiment appears to be stabilizing, and traders are closely watching whether Bitcoin can build on this lower-timeframe breakout to spark a more extended rally in the coming sessions.
