Since Mondays 3% drop, Bitcoin has started to trade in a range once again. Prior to Monday’s drop, Bitcoin traded a tight range for around two weeks with low amounts of trading volume. The trading volume over the past two days have also been low and current price action is looking very similar to the price action prior to Monday’s drop.
Bitcoin continues to trade in the triangle pattern which has been forming since January, and the low volume could be the result of uncertainty from traders as to which way the triangle pattern will play out. In the event of a drop from here, some support would be expected from buyers around $6000 to $6100.

Since the drop, RSI has begun to move back towards the 50 marks showing a relatively equal pressure from the buyers and sellers that remain.
