BTC breaks 50-day moving average, strengthening momentum
March 16, 2026, 4:59 AM
Bitcoin has broken through its 50-day moving average for the first time in about two months, a sign of strengthening upward momentum, CoinDesk reported. The move follows a period of resilient price action amid the war in Iran and instability in global equity markets, particularly in Asia. Alex Kuptsikevich, an analyst at FxPro, explained that a decisive break above the 50-day moving average could be a significant signal of a trend reversal. However, the outlet noted that past rallies following such a break have not always been sustained. For instance, after crossing its 50-day moving average last January, Bitcoin rose approximately 8% before reversing into a downtrend two weeks later.
