Temporary Bitcoin Bottom Identified at $6900 by Analyst

Bitcoin has been free-falling without showing any signs of a retracement since October 25. This is somewhat unusual since price decreases often bounce upwards once they reach a significant level. Cryptocurrency analyst and trader @Josh Rager stated that the $7400 support area holds significant importance since it has often acted as support — thus, it should be considered more important than the $7700 area.

However, the Bitcoin price has broken down below this level since the tweet. Another popular analyst, @loomdart, identified $6900 as a more likely area for a bottom — due to a descending support line.

Let’s take a look at this pattern more closely and analyze if the Bitcoin price will likely make a bottom there.

Descending Bitcoin Price Support

The Bitcoin price has indeed been following a descending support line created by the lows of July 16. The line has been validated four times. Also, it coincides with the bottom of the support area at $6800-$7200. Therefore, it is a likely place to initiate a reversal. However, in the short-term, the Bitcoin price is free-falling without a structure in place. Additionally, the volume has been increasing during bearish moves — as evidenced by the massive volume during the hourly candle at 11:00 UCT+1. Therefore, while it is possible that the Bitcoin price makes a bottom here, there is no short-term structure in place that suggests that the reversal has started.
