  • BTC’s price fell for the fifth straight session after a weak start to the new series.
  • A fall below the 50-day EMA signifies the continuation of the downside movement.
  • A daily candlestick above $23, 500 would invalidate any bearish argument.

BTC price is trading in a rising wedge pattern, a bearish continuation pattern. Currently, the price faces rejection near the higher levels around $23,850.Earlier, the price moved and closed above the 50-day moving average, but couldn’t sustain above and now started to fall below with a bearish candle. The volumes are also below average indicating that the price might ignore any bullish sentiment as of now.

A daily close below the critical $22,000 level would bring more losses to the coin. On moving lower, BTC sellers would target the low of July 27 at $21,045. Further, if the price is not able to sustain the mentioned level then it might ends up in trend reversal.

On the hourly time frame, the price formed a ‘Head & Shoulder’ pattern, indicating bearishness. According to this pattern, if the price descends below $22,600, then we can expect a further fall in the price. BTC price can test $22,400 followed by $22,000.

On the other hand, a break above the $23,500 level could invalidate the bearish outlook. This would mean the emergence of buying near the lower level and would aim for $24,000. The buying could motivate the BTC buyers to take out the $22,500 mark.
