The Uncertain Future of Bitcoin Price
Last week, the price of BTC broke above $27,000 but quickly dropped to $26,000 before the new week began with more losses. Currently trading at $25,677, Bitcoin has experienced a 1.2% decrease in value over the past 24 hours. Both on-chain and micro indicators suggest that the price of BTC may continue to decline before seeing a significant rebound after the 2024 halving.
Given this uncertainty, many investors are hesitant to make a move until Bitcoin decides its next course of action: either breaking out above $30,000 or dipping below $20,000. The struggle to find support at $25,000 has led to consolidation in the market. A recovery is possible if bulls can regain support at $26,000.
Technical Analysis Points to Sideways Market
An analysis of BTC’s price chart reveals that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently in the neutral zone, indicating that neither buyers nor sellers have a clear advantage. This suggests that the market may remain choppy, fluctuating between support at $25,000 and resistance at $26,000 before the next breakout occurs.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator also confirms this sideways price action. Traders may start considering BTC price longs as the blue MACD line widens the gap above the red signal line and climbs toward the mean line (0.00) and into positive territory.
Bitcoin’s Head and Shoulders Pattern
On the weekly timeframe chart, Bitcoin is forming a head and shoulders (H&S) pattern. This pattern suggests that the price of BTC may reach a lower bottom before the anticipated bull run. However, for the pattern to be confirmed, BTC price must break below the $25,000 support level, which has been strengthened by the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
If the neckline at $22,072 is broken, accompanied by a surge in volume, the price of BTC could drop below $20,000 with a target sell-off point around $15,500. Some analysts, like Rekt Capital, believe that BTC price has not yet reached its bottom and may even dip below $20,000 to sweep liquidity before the next bull market.
Hot Take: Keep an Eye on $25,000 Support
For now, it’s crucial to monitor the support level at $25,000. If this level holds, it could prevent the breakout of the predicted head and shoulders pattern and instead lead to a rebound above $30,000. The future of Bitcoin’s price remains uncertain, and investors must stay vigilant and adapt their strategies accordingly.
