The Bitcoin (BTC) price is in a downtrend, although it is making an upward correction as it continues to recover. Price analysis by Coinidol.com.
Bitcoin price long-term forecast: bearish
Bitcoin has risen back above the $52,000 support as buyers push the price to the 21-day SMA barrier. If BTC price rises above the 21-day SMA, it will reach the 50-day SMA high. In other words, a break above the moving average lines will indicate the continuation of the uptrend. The largest cryptocurrency will rise to its previous highs of $64,000 and $70,000.
In contrast, if Bitcoin moves away from the moving average lines, it will trade above the $52,000 support but below the moving averages. However, a break below the $52,000 support level will force Bitcoin to fall to its previous low of $49,000. The value of Bitcoin currently stands at $57,658.
