For instance, Bitcoin closed the week above $21 after struggling to reach the $20K mark without success.

First, BTC’s sharp bounce in the first week of September created a long lower wick indicating buying pressure. Also, the coin price hit a bullish close of $21,826 after maintaining a $19400 horizontal support area since June.
