Bitcoin (BTC) Price Lost 8% Today as It Closed Last Week's Trading Below a Key Level

In a fresh dump, Bitcoin lost 8% today as it closed last week's trading below a key level. This triggered a major price breakdown and is now looking super bearish

Bitcoin price dropped by 8% today as it continues to bleed after failing to close last week’s trading above a key level. This triggered a major price breakdown and is now looking super bearish on the daily chart while also losing momentum.

The recent monthly buy near the $89k level generated some positive sentiment last week. However, it later stalled after failing to advance higher.

This led to a fake out as millions of dollars of short positions were liquidated on futures, leading to a bull trap. The price later dropped throughout the week and closed highly bearish after losing $80k.

Today marks its biggest loss ever since the rejection and is now looking strongly bearish as it dipped to $74.5k today, marking its lowest level in five months. A slight recovery from this level has brought trading back to $77.2k at the time of writing.

It currently aims to retest the $80k level that cracked during yesterday’s dump. We can expect more sell-offs as soon as the price retests this key level. This may come into play during the New York session.

The daily low is currently serving as support. If it holds, we can expect a brief break in the selling pressure. But from the look of things, Bitcoin will most likely test the $71k – $70k range before calming. Right now, the bulls are off the market.
