Important levels to keep an eye on
The BTC/USD 4-hour chart is presently bearish, with Bitcoin declining more than 8% in the last several days. The market’s bearish sentiment appears to be solid.
The biggest immediate support for Bitcoin is around the $35,000 level. A break below this level could see Bitcoin falling to the $30,000 level. On the upside, Bitcoin will need to move above the $40,000 level before it can make a strong recovery.
The MACD line slides below the neutral zone thanks to Bitcoin’s ongoing poor performance. The 14-day RSI of 28 shows that Bitcoin is currently oversold.
Overall, Bitcoin looks likely to continue falling in the near term as bearishness persists.
The current value of Bitcoin is $35,901. If the negative trend continues, Bitcoin may fall below $35k for the first time in weeks. If Bitcoin’s performance deteriorates worse, it will be compelled to defend the second major resistance level at around $33,800.
Bitcoin’s recent poor performance has been a cause for concern among investors. The leading cryptocurrency’s market dominance falls below 60% for the first time since early 2019 as altcoins continue to gain ground.
BTC will need to move above the $40,000 level before it can make a strong recovery.
Given the present scenario, do you think Bitcoin can recover? It will be nice to feel your pulse on this issue.
