Crypto trader Javon Marks highlighted the one-hour chart setting up in a bull flag pattern just below the All-Time Highs.

“A surge into new, unprecedented heights can be in development,” Marks predicted.

Meanwhile, crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez highlighted Bitcoin performance over the last three U.S. presidential elections.

“I don't think this time will be different,” Martinez said.
