There is potential for an extended drop with buyer momentum still dwindling. This is seen in the falling Relative Strength Index (RSI). However, a closer look at this momentum indicator shows an attempt to deviate north as bulls try to reclaim their position in the BTC market.<\/p>\n<p>Enhanced seller momentum could see Bitcoin price drop, first losing the support due to the $50-day SMA at $42,485. Further south, it could test the $40,726 support, or in the dire case, extend the fall to the $37,800.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, for the big picture bullish outlook to be invalidated, Bitcoin price must break and close below the $30,000 psychological level.<\/p>\n<p>The red histogram bars of the Awesome Oscillator (AO) support the bearish thesis, suggesting the bears have a presence in the BTC market. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator has also crossed below the signal line, which is a bearish crossover. These accentuate the bearish thesis.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_471920\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-471920\" style=\"width: 1266px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BTCUSDT_2024-01-13_15-33-38.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-471920 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BTCUSDT_2024-01-13_15-33-38.png\" alt=\"BTC price\" width=\"1266\" height=\"541\" srcset=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BTCUSDT_2024-01-13_15-33-38.png 1266w, https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BTCUSDT_2024-01-13_15-33-38-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BTCUSDT_2024-01-13_15-33-38-1024x438.png 1024w, https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BTCUSDT_2024-01-13_15-33-38-768x328.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1266px) 100vw, 1266px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-471920\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/LnEV9ASG\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TradingView: BTC\/USDT 1-day chart<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4><strong>Converse Case<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>It is impossible to ignore the fact that Bitcoin price enjoys robust support against a downward move. The 50-day SMA at $42,485 presents the first line of defense to the south. Buying pressure above this level could see BTC price push north.<\/p>\n<p>Enhanced buying pressure could see Bitcoin price reclaim back into the fold of the ascending channel above the $44,135 level. Further north, BTC could confront the midline of the channel and potentially go as high as the $48,000 psychological level. In a highly bullish case, the gains could see BTC market value flip the $48,969 range high into support, before using it as the jumping off point to target the $50,000 psychological level. Such a move would constitute a 16% climb above current levels.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, amid the fluctuations in Bitcoin price, much attention is turning to <a href=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/visit\/bitcoinminetrix\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">BTCMTX<\/a> as investors rush to buy the Bitcoin derivative ICO.
