Why the BTC downtrend will continueAfter seeing losses for 7 straight days, you would expect a coin as large as BTC to have a trend reversal or pull back. However, we don’t see this happening in fact, the downtrend will likely push the coin towards a $20,000 bottom before any leg up.
Also, as the price action falls, we have seen a corresponding drop in trade volume. This suggests that investors are staying away from crypto right now. As such, it will be very hard for BTC to find significant momentum in the short term to push it up.
At this rate, Bitcoin will, in the best-case scenario, likely retrace its 200-week moving average of $22,000 and try to find support here. But bears appear to have the upper hand. As long as the trade volume remains suppressed, downward pressure on the price will continue to be strong.
Will Bitcoin fall below $20,000?In 2017, bitcoin hit $19,000 in what was at the time an all-time high. It was hard to imagine the coin would go on to hit $60,000 and above.
But it did and right now, many analysts are worried that the bull run is over. So, it’s not going to be a surprise if BTC falls below $20,000. This will trigger a major sell-off that could see more losses follow.
