Bitcoin Price Analysis: $BTC Price Sideways Action Edging Towards Bullish Breakout; Buy Today?

Bitcoin Price Analysis: The crypto market continues to witness a brawl between buyers and sellers but no clear indication of a directional trend. Thus, the largest cryptocurrency-Bitcoin may see a temporary consolidation, but the short-term downtrend is still intact. This downward trajectory is governed by a wedge pattern indicating the coin price could plunge lower before a significant upswing.

Bitcoin Price Daily Chart

  • The formation of a falling wedge pattern reflects a gradual decrease in bearish momentum.
  • A breakout above the overhead resistance trendline is needed to trigger a bullish recovery.
  • The intraday trading volume in Bitcoin is $12.2 Billion, indicating a 22% loss.

In the last few days, the buyers and sellers attempted to overthrow each other but failed to attain complete domination. Amid this uncertainty, it is valid to rely on short-term trends to determine the near future projection.

Under the influence of a falling wedge pattern, the Bitcoin price has witnessed a correction phase over the past months, constantly wobbling between two converging trendlines. Thus, until the pattern’s downsloping trendline is intact, the coin may see a further correction and could plunge to the $24000 mark this month.

On the flip side, buyers can rely on these two factors to maintain a bullish outlook first, the wedge pattern which is known as an uptrend continuation setup and could offer a considerable recovery upon the breakout of the resistance trendline.

Second, the long-coming support trendline can offer significant pullback opportunities.

Will Bitcoin Price Plunge to $24000?

If the broader market sentiment remains indecisive, the BTC price gradually slides to lower levels. The potential downfall will likely hit the next significant support at $25000, followed by $24000.

  • Moving Average Convergence Divergence: Narrow swings and several crossovers between the MACD(blue) and signal(orange) line reflect current market uncertainty.
  • Super trend: The red film projected by this daily indicator accentuates the bearish market trend.
