BTC price looks to sign of reversal
BTC’s price faced strong rejection near the weekly highs of $43,000 and continued to slide down from thereon. The price breached the crucial $39,000 level on Monday but quickly recovered to the highs. However, the price remains pressured at around $40,000, the levels cemented as a vital support level though.
Now, investors are in a state of ‘wait-and-watch’ as to how the supply-demand situation will response to the support area. As we can see on the weekly chart, the BTC price trades in a ‘rising wedge pattern’ since late January.
A bounce-back is expected at the price from the current level with the bulls targeting the 51,000 mark. However, in this course of the journey, the bulls must close above the 50-day EMA (Exponential Moving Average) at $43,071.
On the other hand, a decisive break below the weekly lows of $38,550 will trigger a fresh round of selling in the biggest cryptocurrency. In that case, the sellers would keep their eyes on $35,000.
