Over the past few days, Bitcoin experienced a dip, reaching as low as $56,500. Despite a significant sell-off from the Spot Bitcoin ETFs, the bulls managed to push the price back up. Currently, Bitcoin is teetering around the $59,000 support level. The big question now: Can the bulls maintain their stance?
Bearish Pressure on Bitcoin
Expectations were high for a Bitcoin price drop, potentially dipping below $51,000. However, the anticipated bearish movement hasn’t materialized yet. Bears have been relentless, with a massive net sell-off of $563.7 million from the Spot Bitcoin ETFs on Wednesday. Even though Thursday saw a smaller net outflow of $34.4 million, it marked the seventh consecutive day of outflows.
Bitcoin Holding Ground
Looking at the daily chart, Bitcoin has shown resilience by climbing back above the critical $59,000 support level, preventing it from turning into resistance. Yet, it’s struggling to surpass the trend line, indicating that there’s still work to be done. A weekly close above $61,000 could potentially nullify the current downtrend, with weekends traditionally favoring bullish trends for Bitcoin.
Potential for Price Drop
From the bearish perspective, there’s still room for a further price drop if bulls fail to capitalize on the recent bounce. This could lead to a dip to around $52,000.
Bitcoin’s Strength: Weekly Stochastic RSI
On the weekly timeframe, the situation looks more optimistic. The longer wick to the downside on the current weekly candle is considered bullish, adding buying pressure to the area. Additionally, there’s robust support at $52,000 in case of a collapse.
Crucially, Bitcoin’s ace in the hole lies in the weekly Stochastic RSI. Observing the chart’s bottom, the signal lines are nearing a bottoming-out phase. If the blue fast line crosses upwards by the end of Sunday’s trading, it could signal a shift towards positive price momentum, potentially leading to a full reversal to the upside.
