Meanwhile, Tesla Bitcoin holdings offered financial support. Tesla owns 11,509 BTC, now worth around $1.36 billion. The 42% increase in bitcoin’s value since April 2025 became visible due to new accounting rules by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). These rules allow fair-value reporting instead of using historical cost.

Bitcoin Forms Bullish Pennant Pattern With Potential 14% Breakout

Meanwhile, on July 24, 2025, Bitcoin BTC/ USDT created a bullish pennant pattern on the 4-hour chart using price data from the Bitstamp exchange. The price opened near $118,590 and closed around $117,859. The chart includes the 50-period exponential moving average (EMA), which stood at $118,065 at the time of analysis.

A bullish pennant pattern is a continuation formation that appears after a strong upward price movement. It looks like a small symmetrical triangle and usually indicates a possible price breakout in the same direction as the earlier move.

Bitcoin’s recent price action formed this pattern after a clear vertical rally on July 11–13. After the price surged, it began consolidating in a tightening range. This range is marked by converging red trendlines forming the pennant, while the 50 EMA provided mid-term support just below the consolidation area.

If the bullish pennant confirms with a breakout above the upper trendline, the expected price target could be around 14% higher than the current value. As of now, BTC trades near $117,859. A 14% move would place the target price near $135,589, as shown on the chart.

The volume activity shows a drop during the consolidation, which is typical of this pattern. Traders often watch for a sudden rise in volume along with a breakout to validate the next move. The price must stay above the 50-period EMA to maintain its bullish structure. If it breaks below the support line, the setup could become invalid.

For now, the chart shows a technical setup that suggests further upside is possible if momentum returns and buyers push past resistance.

Bitcoin RSI Drops Below 50 as Momentum Slows Near Key Support

On July 24, 2025, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) for Bitcoin fell to 46.20, slipping below its moving average of 51.77. The RSI is a technical indicator used to measure the speed and change of price movements. It typically ranges between 0 and 100. When the RSI moves below 50, it often signals weakening bullish momentum or the early stages of a bearish trend.

Earlier in the month, the RSI peaked above 70, indicating strong upward pressure. The green shading in the chart shows that buying momentum was dominant during that period. However, after the mid-July peak, RSI started forming lower highs. This downward shift suggests a cooling phase in market sentiment.

The RSI remained between the 40 and 60 range for most of the recent candles. This sideways movement confirms that traders are indecisive. The current RSI level near 46.20 shows that sellers may now be slightly stronger than buyers, especially with the RSI line crossing below its own moving average.

Unless RSI reclaims the 50 level and holds above it, short-term momentum could stay weak. Combined with the recent price consolidation, this indicator points to a pause in the bullish drive unless supported by volume or price confirmation. Traders often watch the RSI in tandem with other signals like moving averages or volume spikes to validate trends.
