Bitcoin Plunges, Threatens Further Drop To $27,000

Bitcoin (BTC) price is bearish and crossing below the moving average lines.

Bitcoin price long-term forecast: bearish

If the moving average lines are broken, the bitcoin price could fall even further. At the time of publication, a low of $27,814 was reached for one bitcoin. If the price breaks the $28,000 support level, selling pressure could increase. The value of the crypto asset has been fluctuating between $28,000 and $30,000 since April 26, and if the current support is broken, the BTC price will fall until it reaches the following support, which is $27,000. If buyers fail to secure the critical support levels, selling pressure could eventually reach a low of $25,200. In contrast, the uptrend will resume if Bitcoin holds its position above the $28,000 support level. In the last price action, when the BTC price crossed the moving average lines, Bitcoin surged and recovered to the psychological price level of $30,000. Today's decline is due to the bulls' inability to maintain their bullish momentum above the $30,000 level. Since then, bitcoin has fallen below the $28,000 support level.
