Bitcoin (BTC) seems to be showing some weakness recently with the BTC price dropping 7% and slipping under $40,000. As of press time, Bitcoin is trading at $39,866 with a market cap of $782 billion.
Key Bitcoin Price Levels to Watch
In a recent analysis, crypto analyst Ali Martinez highlights a crucial level to monitor for Bitcoin’s price trajectory. According to Martinez, a close below $38,000 on the weekly chart could serve as an indication of a possible downturn for Bitcoin ($BTC), with the next target being the robust support cluster around $33,000.
This critical support area amalgamates several essential technical elements, including the lower boundary of a parallel channel, the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level, and the 50-week simple moving average. The convergence of these factors establishes a formidable line of defense that has the potential to impede further declines in Bitcoin’s price, providing a key level for market participants to observe closely.
Furthermore, Ali Martinez delves into historical trends observed in the last two Bitcoin ($BTC) bull cycles. Martinez notes that during these previous cycles, Bitcoin often retraced to the 50% Fibonacci level after reaching the 78.6% Fibonacci level.
Drawing parallels to these historical patterns, Martinez observes that Bitcoin price has recently touched the 78.6% Fibonacci level again, hinting at a potential correction. If the historical pattern persists, Martinez suggests that Bitcoin price could experience a drop to $32,700, aligning with the 50% Fibonacci retracement level.
