BTC again declined towards the $24,000 resistance to show that the bears have not left the market just yet. The crypto market may be affected by the retracement phase as this market dominator-Bitcoin slips below the next important support levels.
Bitcoin
BTC price appears under high volatility as its marking also moves up and down on a daily basis. Bears have pared the overall gains of Jan 29, and this could lead to further effective selling if a monthly close below $23K.
https://www.tradingview.com/x/mYJrr277/The hourly chart is showing short-term selling as bitcoin price reached the 0.382 level of the Fibonacci retracement level (at $22,930). Notably, this retracement pulled it below the ascending trendline and the price action flipped the buy on dip strategy. Going forward, buyers may see a drop in bitcoin price at this rising hurdle.
Although the trading volume decreased slightly, there is still a large number of buyers and sellers. Retail traders used to trade aggressively in the intraday trading session. As of now, there is no need to fear as the buyers have an important protection level at $23,300 if this lower momentum continues further.
As mentioned in the previous article $24000 level was an important resistance for the buyers so they will have to cross this mark soon to reach $25K in the first week of February. The upcoming bounce back may increase the confidence of the buyers to maintain the bullish zone.
Closing ThoughtsBitcoin speculators should wait for the monthly price close to create another open position. At this crucial level, the retracement phase is also a major concern and if bitcoin rebounds and sustains above $24K, the price is likely to reach $25K soon.
