Bitcoin’s Dramatic Plunge: Is It Time to Panic? 😱

In a most unfortunate turn of events, the Bitcoin price has embarked on a rather dismal decline, tumbling below the $106,800 threshold. It now finds itself in a rather precarious position, grappling with resistance at the $106,200 mark. One can only wonder if this is the beginning of a tragic saga.

  • Bitcoin has indeed commenced a fresh descent beneath the $106,200 barrier.
  • Currently, it languishes below $106,800, trailing the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average like a forlorn lover.
  • A rather curious triangle is forming, with support at $104,200 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (courtesy of our friends at Kraken).
  • Should it manage to cling to the $103,500 zone, there may yet be hope for a revival.

Bitcoin Price Takes Another Nosedive

Alas, Bitcoin’s price has once again succumbed to the whims of fate, failing to breach the $108,800 resistance. It has now dipped below both the $108,000 and $107,000 levels, much to the chagrin of its most ardent supporters.

In a clear act of defiance, it has plummeted beneath the $106,200 support level, ultimately testing the $103,500 zone. A low was recorded at $103,400, and now it appears to be consolidating its losses, much like a cat that has fallen from a great height.

Bitcoin continues to trade below $106,800 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. Furthermore, the aforementioned triangle is still in play, with support at $104,200 on the hourly chart.

On the brighter side, immediate resistance looms near the $105,200 level. The first key resistance is at $105,500, with the next potential hurdle at $106,200, which coincidentally aligns with the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $108,924 swing high to the $103,400 low.

Should it manage to close above the $106,200 resistance, we might witness a miraculous ascent. In such a case, the price could very well test the $108,000 resistance level, and dare we say, venture towards the lofty heights of $110,000.

Are We Facing More Losses in BTC?

However, if Bitcoin fails to rise above the $106,200 resistance zone, we may be on the brink of yet another decline. Immediate support is hovering near the $104,200 level, with the first major support at $103,500.

The next support is now positioned at the $102,500 zone. Should further losses ensue, we might find ourselves gravitating towards the $101,200 support in the near term. The main support, however, rests at the ominous $100,000 mark, below which BTC could very well spiral into bearish territory.
