Bitcoin Remains Flat Above $29,000 As Traders Remain Uncertain

Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading above the $29,000 support level and between the moving average lines.

Bitcoin price long term forecast: bearish

As Bitcoin consolidates above the $29,000 support level, the bears have an advantage over the bulls. Since July 24, the BTC price has stabilized above the $29,000 support level or the 50-day simple moving average line.

If the bears break the current $29,000 support, the market will come under selling pressure again. The most valuable cryptocurrency would fall to a low of $28,000. On the positive side, a rise above the current support level will see Bitcoin rise above the 21-day simple moving average (SMA) or resistance at $30,000. At the time of writing, the BTC price is at $29,449. In the meantime, the BTC price will remain range bound for a few more days.
