BTC’s price makes an attempt to recover but faces a strong upside hurdle in the last few session. BTC dropped 63% from the record highs made in November at $69,000. However, amid the oversold market structure, there is a fair chance of a recovery in the weekly time frame.

On the weekly chart, the BTC price tested the critical 200-day EMA (Exponential Moving Average) at $26,879.01 with the formation of a ‘hammer’ candlestick pattern. A sustained buying pressure would be required to push the price to pierce and tag the horizontal $34,000 mark.

An acceptance above $34,000 would ask for $40,000, the horizontal resistance zone.

On the contrary, a spike in sell orders could push the price lower. Further, a daily candlestick below $25,000 would trigger a key level to amplify the selling toward December 2020 low, $18,000.

Technical indicator:

  • RSI: The weekly relative strength index trades below the average line near the oversold zone. The same levels were last seen in March 2020.
  • MACD: The moving average convergence divergence holds below the midline with a bearish bias.
