Bitcoin was unable to continue its last week’s bullish momentum and started to decline after touching a high of $47,184 on April 5th.
Bitcoin broke the $40,000 support and touched a low of $36,210 in today’s Asian trading session.
The selloff continues across the crypto markets, and the global investor sentiments are low due to the continuation of the Russia-Ukraine war and its emerging impacts on the prices of energy and stock markets.
After falling below the $40,000 handle, bitcoin found support and has entered a mildly bullish channel in today’s European trading session.
We can clearly see a double bottom pattern above the $39,000 handle which is a bullish reversal pattern because it signifies the end of a downtrend and a shift towards an uptrend.
The Stoch and the Williams percent range are indicating an overbought level which means that in the immediate short term, a decline in the prices is expected.
The relative strength index is at 43 indicating a WEAK demand for bitcoin at the current market levels.
Bitcoin is now moving below its 100 hourly simple moving average and its 200 hourly exponential moving average.
Most of the major technical indicators are giving a BUY signal, which means that in the immediate short term, we are expecting targets of $41,000 and $43,000.
The average true range is indicating LESSER market volatility with a mild bullish momentum.
