The post Bitcoin Losing the Momentum as the Traders Turn Bearish on BTC Price—What’s Next? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
In the times when the Bitcoin price was expected to rise above $70,000 aiming for a new ATH, the bears have intensified their activity. The Bitcoin (BTC) price is just a few dollars above $67,000 and hence is believed to drop back to the range. However, a small rise may erase the bearish trajectory, as the bulls appear to have been waiting for the price to rise and secure levels above the crucial resistance.
What’s next for the Bitcoin (BTC) price rally? Will it drop below the support at $66,000 or reclaim $69,000?
The futures play an important role in determining the trend of the upcoming price action. If the traders are not sure of the trend to remain elevated, they usually open the short positions. These positions are liquidated after the price faces rejection and surpasses the region where the shorts are accumulated. As per the data from Coinglass shared by an analyst, Ali, nearly $83.7 million in shorts have been accumulated around $69,785.
Hence, if the BTC price rebounds to $69,785, then these accumulated shorts could get liquidated, which may offer a fine boost surpassing $70,000. Until then, the price is expected to remain consolidated within a range. Secondly, most of the Bitcoin futures traders on Binance remain bearish on Bitcoin, with the majority of them entering a short trade. This suggests the bearish momentum is expected to thrive and may keep the price consolidated within a narrow range.
The Bitcoin price faced a rejection from the pivotal price zone around $69,300, which had offered a strong base earlier and now has become a strong resistance to secure. Besides, the price smashed the upper bands of Bollinger and quickly dropped. Secondly, the MACD is preparing for a bearish crossover. Hence, the price is expected to drop and test the average bands below $65,000 if the bulls fail to defend the upper resistance of the descending parallel channel.
The bulls are leaving no stones unturned in keeping up the momentum of the rally, but the buying pressure has decreased to a large extent. If the bulls fail to reclaim their dominance, the possibility of reaching $70,000 could be delayed by another couple of months. Moreover, the recent move suggested the start of the bull run could be fast approaching but constant rejection may weaken the bulls as well.
Therefore, it’s time to wait and watch for the next Bitcoin (BTC) price move, as losing the pivotal support could be extremely dangerous for the rally.
