Bitcoin (BTC) is likely in the middle of a short-term correction that has taken it below $60,000. Following this correction, a rebound in price is likely.
BTC decreased considerably on Oct 26 and created a bearish engulfing candlestick. This is a type of bearish candlestick in which the entire upward movement from the previous day is negated with an equal or larger drop the next day.
The main support area is found between $52,400 and $53,350. This range is made up of a short (white) and a long-term (black) Fib retracement level and a horizontal support area. There is also a minor support level at $56,550, created by only the short-term Fib level.
Technical indicators support the continuation of the decrease.
The MACD, which is created by short and long-term moving averages (MA) is falling. Currently, the MACD is still positive, indicating that the short-term trend is moving faster than the long-term trend. However, it’s decreasing, signaling that the MA is decelerating.
The RSI, which is a momentum indicator is also decreasing. It’s above 50, signaling that momentum is still bullish, but the decreasing RSI indicates that momentum is also losing strength.
