Bitcoin Price Prediction
BTCUSD – Daily Chart

BTC/USD falls below $49,875 as the largest cryptocurrency embarked on a support smashing exercise after failing to hold above $49,000 following a significant breakout in the last few days. Hence, the bearish control has been seen across the market, with other major digital assets seeing similar losses when trading below the upper boundary of the channel.

Bitcoin Price Prediction: Can BTC Price Go Lower?

At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at $49,245 with an intraday loss of 0.51% as the prevailing trend is bearish with expanding volatility. However, Bitcoin (BTC) is currently consolidating in a bearish flag pattern and a breakout of this pattern in the direction of the previous trend is expected to continue. In this event, BTC/USD is expected to fall and stay below the 9-day moving average which may likely move towards the critical support levels at $46,000, $44,000, and $42,000.

However, if the Bitcoin price stays above the 9-day and 21-day moving averages; the price could rise to $50,000 vital resistance while a further bullish drive could take the coin to the resistance levels of $54,000, $56,000, and $58,000 respectively. Moreover, the technical indicator Relative Strength Index (14) is currently moving below 70-level, which shows a possible bearish momentum may play out or the coin may range-bound before moving higher once again.
