Descending Triangle
The price of BTC/USD on BITFINEX was analyzed at one-hour intervals from May 24 to Jun 10 in order to trace the current trading pattern.

The support line of the triangle has been touched three times. The previous two times, an upward move began. Will it be the same for the third time?
An analysis of weekly candlesticks refutes this possibility.
The price of BTC has created an evening star pattern. It is a bearish reversal pattern consisting of three candles: a large bullish candlestick, a candlestick with a small body and a bearish engulfing candle.
Last week’s candle ($7633) closed below the opening price of the candle for the two weeks prior ($8133).
Will the Bitcoin price break down? Let’s take a look at technical indicators and try to find out.
BTC Price: Technical Indicators
The price of BTC is analyzed alongside the 10- and 20- day moving averages (MA) below:
On June 8, a bearish cross occurred between the 10- and 20- day MAs. This is often an indicator that a downtrend has begun. A gradual decrease began shortly after. Furthermore, the 10-day MA is providing very close resistance to the Bitcoin price.
The use of this indicator, combined with the fact that the descending triangle is a bearish pattern, makes it likely that the BTC price will break down from the triangle.
If it does, where will the price find support?
Future Movement
One support and one resistance area for BTC/USD is traced in the graph below. They are used to determine future areas of reversal.
The closest support area is found near $7000. If the Bitcoin price breaks down from the triangle, it is likely to provide support.
Conversely, the closest resistance area is found near $7950. For the price to reach this area it would have to break out from the triangle. An analysis of technical indicators makes this unlikely.
Summary
Bitcoin (BTC) is trading inside a descending triangle. The daily moving averages give a bearish outlook. Furthermore, on a weekly timeframe, the Bitcoin price has created a bearish reversal pattern. The technical indicators support a decrease toward the support line outlined above. Do you think the Bitcoin price will break down from the triangle? Let us know in the comments below.
