BTC/USD – Daily Chart
Surprising Bitcoin has plunged to $9,200 low but corrected upward to $9,500. It was earlier expected that sellers may emerge at the overbought region to push prices down. The estimated retracement was to reach a low of $10,000 or $9,950. However, the market plunged to $9,200. Bitcoin is back to the upside range where price fluctuates between $9,300 and $9,800 and then retest the $10,000 overhead resistance. It is not clear if the downtrend will resume.
On the downside, if the bears turn around and break the $9,000 support, the downtrend will resume. The market will drop to $8,800 and then to $8,200 low. That has been the usual market scenario. On the upside, if the bulls sustained hold on the upside range, a rebound can reoccur to push price above the overhead resistance. After the recent breakdown, Bitcoin is below 80 % range of the daily stochastic. This implies that the market is in a bearish momentum and price is overbought.
