50-Day EMA Breakdown Puts Focus on Support Levels for Bitcoin
BTC, the largest cryptocurrency by market cap, has mostly used the 50-day EMA as a reference indicator at times of important phases. Trading below this point usually means that the short-term rally has worn out. This happens mostly when sustained selling pressure and lower highs on the chart come together.
Cryptocurrency analyst Ted Pillows stated that BTC has slipped below the 50-day EMA and highlighted that the level now is at near-term resistance. According to his post, failing to reclaim this moving average could make the coin’s liquidity fall into the $89,500–$90,000 range. This range is an area that earlier felt like structural support for the asset.
