On June 18, analyst and chartered market technician Omkar Godbole stated that the current Bitcoin price has fallen back to the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), which has provided support and pushed the price to rebound twice this month.
Therefore, this re-test of the MA provides bulls with an opportunity to establish a trend—making the 50-day MA a launching pad for a new round of increase. Conversely, if the 50-day MA support fails, it may trigger stronger selling pressure, leading to a price drop below the 100,000 dollar mark.
From the market perspective, the bearish forces seem to have the upper hand. Recently, the strength of the rebound from the 50-day MA has gradually weakened: on June 5th, during the first test of the MA, Bitcoin rebounded over $10,000 from $100,500; while on June 17th, during the second test, the rebound was only from $103,000 to $109,000.
The doji candlestick formed in the past week also shows that bullish momentum above $100,000 has begun to wane. To revitalize the short-term bullish outlook, Bitcoin needs to break out with volume above the key resistance level of $110,000.
