Cryptocurrency price analysis brought by Coinidol.com. The Bitcoin (BTC) price has been steadily declining after its recent breakout on October 16.
Bitcoin price long-term forecast: bullish
Previously, the Bitcoin value was trapped between the moving average lines. On October 16, the cryptocurrency price broke through the 21-day simple moving average and began an upward movement. The bullish momentum broke through the resistance at $28,600 and rose above the psychological price level of $30,000. After reaching the $30,000 high, Bitcoin fell dramatically and is now trading below the $28,600 resistance level.
Nonetheless, the long candle from October 16 suggests that there is significant selling pressure at the higher price level. Bitcoin was similarly rejected on August 29 and October 1. The BTC price is returning to the moving average lines to the downside. If the BTC price falls below the 50-day line SMA, the downtrend will resume. Bitcoin will first fall to the critical support above $26,000.
