Bull flags typically resolve after the price breaks above the upper trendline and rises by as much as the previous uptrend’s height. This puts the upper target for Bitcoin price at $175,700 — up 73% from the current price.

Additionally, Bitcoin’s daily relative strength index is positive at 69. This suggests that the market conditions still favored the upside, boosting BTC’s chances of reaching its bull flag target.
