Bitcoin’s recent price action has been firmly controlled by sellers, who have been able to successfully push BTC down to its November 25th lows of $6,500 that were previously viewed as a potential long-term bottom for the cryptocurrency.
Now that Bitcoin is back at this level, there are a couple key price levels that analysts are closely watching, as its reaction to these levels in the near-term could provide significant insight into where the embattled markets are heading next.
Bitcoin revisits key long-term support level at $6,500At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading down nearly 5 percent at its current price of $6,600, which marks only a slight climb from its daily lows of $6,500 that were set a few hours ago as bears successfully attempted to extend the short-term downwards momentum that began when it broke below $7,000 yesterday.
Bitcoin’s reaction to its current price levels will be telling as to whether or not bulls have a chance at reversing this current trend, or if sellers will continue to push the cryptocurrency further down.
Analysts do anticipate BTC to see further near-term losses, with Lomah, a widely respected trader and technical analyst on Twitter, telling his followers that he believes $6,000 will be a long-term bottom that proves to be a “generational long” opportunity.
“$BTC: Thinking ~$6,000 bottom and generational long before HTF markup. Anything below $5,400 and this entire niche community will be meeting up at McDonald’s,” he said while pointing to the chart seen below.

Big Chonis, a popular cryptocurrency analyst on Twitter, explained that multiple technical indicators are pointing to the possibility that further losses are imminent in the near-term. He noted while referencing the collage of indicators seen below:
“Bitcoin – daily [bollinger bands] widening with bitcoin declining and taking the middle [bollinger band] with it….RSI putting in a familiar pattern and the MACD bearish crossing with new negative histogram with room to run.”
