Bitcoin’s (BTC) price is still trapped between moving average lines.
Long-term forecast for the Bitcoin price: bearish
According to price analysis by Coinidol.com the largest cryptocurrency is trading below the 21-day SMA but above the 50-day SMA. The bears fueled the slide even further when buyers failed to keep the price above the 21-day simple moving average.
Meanwhile, bulls and bears continue to battle for control of the price. The bears will have an advantage if the BTC price falls below the 21-day SMA. Bitcoin is currently worth $66,131 after falling below the 21-day SMA support.
If buyers reclaim the 21-day SMA support, Bitcoin price will rally and regain its high of $74,000. On the other hand, if selling pressure picks up again, the negative momentum will continue to the $57,700 level, the low above the 50-day SMA. The current value of Bitcoin is $66,131 (as of this writing).
