Bitcoin Takes A Break And Goes For Aggressive Buying At $64,000

Jun 22, 2024 at 12:26 // Price

The price of Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen further below the moving average lines while remaining above the $64,300 support.

Long-term forecast for the Bitcoin price: bearish

The largest cryptocurrency is likely to fall as long as it remains in the downtrend zone. On the upside, Bitcoin will resume its uptrend if the bulls defend the current support level of $64,300. The cryptocurrency will rise and retest its moving average lines. A break above the moving average lines will propel Bitcoin to the high of $70,000.

However, if the bullish scenario is invalidated, Bitcoin will be forced into a sideways trend. The cryptocurrency will trade above the support level of $64,000 but below the moving average lines. In contrast, the bears will break the $64,000 support and force Bitcoin to crash. The largest cryptocurrency risks a drop to a low of $60,000 if the current support is broken. Bitcoin is currently valued at $64,226.
