Looking at 4hr charts, we should also say, expect volatile dumps along the way (eg. price plummets of up to $300 down within a few hours) as the price will probably bounce around from hour to hour.

Looking to Buy Bitcoin?
Buying Bitcoin is like buying a house, look into all aspects before taking the plunge and you don’t buy a house in a day.
To get started you will need a bitcoin wallet and further to that an account on a crypto exchange to buy and sell bitcoin.
- Wallet: Setting up a digital wallet is simple, hardware wallets would need a few days to arrive in the post (we recommend the latter).
- Crypto Exchange: Registration on an exchange is mostly immediate, however KYC and making a depositing might take a few hours if you plan to trade on a non- custodial exchange.
Quickest approach: If you are looking to buy bitcoin right now, you will have to make a few security sacrifices, eg: not have your own wallet and trade on a custodial exchange like Coinbase or Binance. A custodial exchange means that the exchange holds your private key & lacks transparency but is faster than non-custodial exchanges. See our Crypto Exchange Reviews before taking the plunge.
