Bitcoin Price Analysis
Bitcoin’s price dropped lower on Wednesday and finished its daily session -$2,412.
The BTC/USD 1D chart below from crypto Trading Analytics shows BTC’s price bumping up against the 0.618 fib level [$44,169.75] as bearish BTC traders are attempting to take bullish market participants into even deeper waters. If bulls fail to hold the 0.618 fib level retracement, the next strongest fib support on the daily timescale is all the way down at the 0.786 fib level [$37,410.28].
Conversely, if bullish traders want to stall momentum against the bears or muster any sort of rally, they’ll need to reclaim the 0.5 fib level [$48,917.48] and flip it back to support from its current standing of overhead resistance.
The BTC/USD 1M chart from Afrash indicates BTC’s price still has further room to the downside before it hits a historical support zone.
