Bitcoin Price Prediction: BTC Falters Ahead Of A Potential Breakdown To $10,000
- Bitcoin settles above $10,800 after bouncing off $10,600 support.
- Bitcoin nurtures a sideways trend ahead of a breakdown that could revisit levels around $10,000.
The cryptocurrency market is indecisive and continues to trade horizontally. Bitcoin has impressively held above $10,800. However, gains towards $11,000 have been capped under $10,900.
On the downside, the flagship cryptocurrency is protected at $10,600. In other words, BTC is lock-step trading in the range between $10,600 and $10,900. Meanwhile, the digital asset is valued at $10,805 at the time of writing. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) in the daily range is leveling at the midline, particularly emphasizing the sideways trading.
At the moment, it is not clear which direction BTC will take following the return and the end of the uncertainty. At the same time, the formation of a short term ascending wedge pattern in the same daily range highlights the possibility of a downtrend that could eventually send Bitcoin back to lows around $10,000.

Various support zones will try to absorb the selling pressure including $10,600, $10,400 and $10,200. Bitcoin could stand to gain more with the slide to $10,000, giving investors another chance to buy the dip. The volume that would be created following the deep might give the bellwether cryptocurrency a boost past $11,000.
