Bitcoin has been struggling to maintain its immense momentum following the multiple rejections seen at $16,000 It is now consolidating within the lower-$15,000 region, with bulls struggling to hold it above this level as it continues slowly drifting lower It did see a sharp rebound from its overnight lows of $14,800 that were set during yesterday’s selloff, with the support here being significant That being said, the multitude of rejections at $16,000 hasn’t bode well for its short-term outlook Until it can break above this level, it could be positioned to see further weakness in the short-term This comes as it tests a crucial parabolic trendline that has been formed throughout the past few months

Bitcoin has been consolidating over the past week, with the selling pressure at $16,000 so far proving to be too much for its buyers to handle.

Until this level is broken above, bulls may be plagued by underlying weakness, and it may see a prolonged consolidation phase.

This consolidation could favor altcoins, and many are already catching major upwards momentum while BTC stagnates – especially those within the DeFi sector.

One analyst explained that Bitcoin is now testing a key parabolic trendline. It is imperative that this is defended, or else it could bear witness to some major downside.

Bitcoin Consolidates as Buyers Struggle to Gain Momentum

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading down just under 1% at its current price of $15,200. This marks a notable decline from daily highs of $15,500 that were set overnight.

Since reeling down to lows of $14,800 yesterday morning and rebounding back above $15,000, the cryptocurrency has primarily been consolidating.

Until it can break this consolidation phase and rally higher, attention may start drifting towards altcoins.

Today, Yearn.finance’s YFI token and many other so-called “blue chip” DeFi tokens are trading up, with many seeing parabolic momentum over the past week.

Trader Claims BTC is Testing a Parabolic Trendline

One trader explained in a recent tweet that it is imperative that Bitcoin guard against seeing any further downside in the mid-term.

He noted that the crypto is currently testing a parabolic trendline that has been formed throughout the past several months.

If this trendline continues being defended in the near-term, it could help catalyze significantly further momentum. A break below it, however, could be dire for Bitcoin’s near-term trend.

Bitcoin Price Analysis: Upward Drift Continues Following Established Macro Support

Since mid-February, the bitcoin market has continued to drift upward toward a band of strong, macro resistance (shown below as a red band). This slow, drift upward marks our fourth test of the resistance zone and, unlike the three prior tests, our rejection of the level has shown a weakness on the side of the bears:Figure 1: BTC-USD, Daily Candles, Fourth RejectionIf we compare the three prior rejections (labeled 1, 2 and 3), we see that the move into this resistance level was violent — and had equally violent rejections.

Bitcoin Price Analysis: Slow Grind Could Lead to Short Squeeze

Last Friday, we discussed a macro resistance level bitcoin would likely test. The level was tested three times prior and immediately rejected. Now, for the fourth time, we find ourselves situated above the level as we wait to see if our support holds:Figure 1: BTC-USD, Daily Candles, Fourth Test of Macro ResistanceThe first three attempts to hold support above the black, broken resistance have been stifled with relatively high amounts of volume.

Bitcoin Price Analysis: Bullish Rejection Wipes Out Bitcoin’s Weekend Gains

Over the weekend, a strong rally was stifled by an even stronger rejection as the bitcoin market was shoved into a band of overhanging resistance. This band of resistance has been mentioned several times in our analyses over the last few weeks as it has proven impossible to overcome for the time being:Figure 1: BTC-USD, Daily Candles, Failed BreakoutThis run to the low $4,000s coincided with a breakout of a rather large symmetrical triangle consolidation shown above.
