In his latest podcast update, cryptocurrency trader Lark Davis previewed what could lay ahead for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and different altcoins.
What Happened: Davis noted that Bitcoin’s price action appears to have turned bullish, citing interesting chart patterns and indicators. He highlighted Bitcoin’s relative strength, which has retraced back to 40%, a level associated with rally attempts on three occasions since early 2023. Davis also highlighted the MACD bull cross and the RSI breakout as positive signs for the market.
Regarding the recent dip, Davis commented, "We did face a quick recovery as we’re saying the general consensus view is that we’re going down to $52,000 and look we could still have a correction down let’s not get too ahead of ourselves or too full of our bridges here right."
The Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) and Relative Strength Index (RSI) are two popular momentum indicators providing bullish and bearish signals to investors.

Price Action: At the time of writing, BTC was trading at $63,075 down 1.8% over the past 24 hours.
Why It Matters: Davis’ analysis suggests that Bitcoin may be on the verge of a trend reversal, with potential significant implications for the entire crypto market. He emphasized the importance of the 50-day EMA, stating that a conclusive close above this level could indicate a bullish momentum shift.
In the altcoin market, Davis discussed the recent developments in various projects, including Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), Solana (CRYPTO: SOL), and the newly launched Sui (CRYPTO: SUI) blockchain. He noted that Ethereum’s Layer-2 networks now hold 12.71% of the entire Ethereum supply, representing more than $10 billion in value.
Davis also touched on the competition between top blockchains, such as Cardano (CRYPTO: ADA), Polkadot (CRYPTO: DOT), and Avalanche (CRYPTO: AVAX), emphasizing the importance of these projects stepping up their game to attract users and developers.
While highlighting the success of meme coins like Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) and Pepe (CRYPTO: PEPE), Davis speculated on the potential of newer meme coins like Foxy on the Linea blockchain.
What’s Next: The influence of Bitcoin as an institutional asset class is expected to be thoroughly explored at Benzinga’s upcoming Future of Digital Assets event on Nov. 19.
