This week in Markets
Catch the latest happenings of this week. All in one place through CoinCodeCap’s Weekly Glance. We provide you with all the week’s top stuff in crypto for your ease.
Last week, Bitcoin (BTC) followed a downward trend, anticipating that this week will be no different. On April 30, BTC was trading at a value of $48K and was holding firm when equities closed on Friday. But the jump was a dead-cat bounce, and there has been a massive dump since then. The Bitcoin chart has already made a lower low, which signifies a trend change, and on May 8, it was trading at $34K. After the mid-sized correction on May 6, the dust is still settling across crypto markets.
Bitcoin’s network had 1.17M unique active addresses making transactions on May 6, which was the highest amount of utility since December 2, 2021.
Current Scenario
If we deeply analyze $BTC on a higher time frame, i.e., 1Month TF, it could be seen that $BTC is about to retest $33k levels where strong support of Middle Crisis Line of FIB Log is present, which had been respecting PA of $BTC timely.
65% chances exist that after the above-mentioned retest scenario, we’ll witness an upward rally. 35% chances lie which would be worse come worse, upon breaking down of middle crisis line and closure below it would surely lead to the start of a massive bear market & we’ll head lower. ($BTC can take liquidity below the $33k level, too & then resumes an upward rally).
Bull Flag Scenario on 1M TF
If the retest of Middle FIB Log’s Crisis Line goes successful and then $BTC does breakout + closure of BULL FLAG on 1M TF, we are surely going much higher. Keep in mind that this is the financial market; we can’t go upward like a bazooka fire, there will be corrections/pullbacks, but overall $BTC has potential.
