The weekly chart of BTC suggests the bulls are in full control and the price is well above the 50-week simple moving average (blue). It already posted a new all-time high at $96,747 and might continue to rise.

Immediate resistance is visible near the $100,000 milestone level. The first major resistance is near the $102,000 level. It is close to the 1.618 Fib extension level of the downward move from the $68,958 swing high to the $15,822 low.

A clear move above the $102,000 level could set the pace for a test of the $108,000 level. If the bulls succeed in clearing the $108,000 resistance, it could be a strong bullish signal. The next key resistance could be near the $112,500 level. Any more gains might send Bitcoin toward the $120,000 level.
