<h2 id="strong-bullish-mvrv-ratio-puts-btc-price-target-at-120-000-strong">Bullish MVRV ratio puts BTC price target at $120,000</h2>
Bitcoin is attempting to reclaim its 2022 all-time high of $69,000 as election anxiety engulfs the market on Nov. 5.&nbsp;
In a market currently influenced by numerous macro-related issues, CoinLupin, an analyst at market intelligence firm CryptoQuant, <a data-ct-non-breakable="null" href="https://cryptoquant.com/insights/quicktake/67286e5835715d4d1271bdd5-MVRV-Cycle?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=sns&amp;utm_campaign=quicktake&amp;utm_content=coinlupin" rel="null" target="null" text="null" title="null">opted</a> for the traditional approach, utilizing the market value realized value (MVRV) indicator to indirectly assess Bitcoin’s current value.
With Bitcoin’s price trading at $68,755, the MVRV stands at 2, “indicating that the market’s surface value is twice the onchain estimated value,” the analyst said.
CoinLupin also found that the MVRV indicator recently surpassed the 365-day average and is presently above the four-year average, which typically reflects Bitcoin’s cycle.
<blockquote>
 “This suggests that the upward trend remains intact, and generally, the cycle peak tends to occur when the MVRV reaches levels between 3 and 3.6.”
</blockquote>

Supposing the realized value (RV) remains constant, a 43%–77% increase is necessary for the MVRV ratio, the accompanying commentary added.&nbsp;
<blockquote>
 “When applied to Bitcoin, this translates to a target of $95k to $120k.”
</blockquote>
To put this into perspective, the analyst explained that as the market rises with new buying interest, there is likely to be an uptick in RV as well, and a peak could be formed above these levels when previous cycles are taken into consideration.&nbsp;
<blockquote>
 “While Bitcoin has risen significantly over the past year, it has only returned to the average level on the MVRV indicator. The upward momentum is still being maintained.”
</blockquote>

Bitcoin’s uptick on Nov. 5 saw it rise above a key level embraced by the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA), currently at $68,221, supporting the continuation of the uptrend.
At the time of publication, Bitcoin was trading above this crucial level, which serves as immediate support.&nbsp;
