Bitcoin (BTC) has been trading upwards. As I expected, the price tested the level of $17,417. South Korea's top financial regulators have clarified their position following reports by local media that they have been considering a possible ban on all cryptocurrency transactions, particularly bitcoin. The technical picture looks bullish.

Trading recommendations:

According to the 30M time frame, I found the broken intraday bullish flag, which is a sign that selling looks risky. The buying pressure is present and my advice is to watch for potential buying opportunities. The upward targets are set at the price of $17,423 and $18,600.
