The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has just given a bearish crossover. The MACD line has crossed the lower side of the signal line, and the histogram is also showing a negative value of -500. This transition indicates a decline in buying pressure and creates a chance of short-term correction in case buyers cannot regain control.
The range action on the daily chart shows that the ranges are becoming smaller and volatility is declining. Bitcoin has over and over again tried to test at the level of $118,000 but has continued to fail convincingly above it.
In case the Bitcoin Invalidates the 50-day moving average, it might result in an opening to a decline to the low of $106,969. Nonetheless, a powerful impulse above the recent high of $118,775, may tap back the bullish drive and move the prices to the area of $120,000-$123,000.
