Bitcoin is capable of falling in the bearish trend zone

Bitcoin (BTC) bulls made positive moves as they pushed BTC prices above the $40,000 high. However, buyers fail to sustain the bullish momentum above the resistance.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Long-Term Prediction: Bullish

The bottom line is that if buyers are successful above the resistance, a rally to $50,000 is likely. Yesterday, May 26, Bitcoin slumped to $37,540 low because of rejection at the recent high. Today, another attempt is being made to breach the recent high. In the previous price action, BTC/USD has been fluctuating in a narrow range between $36,000 and $42500. 

This gives buyers the privilege to retest or break the resistance at $40,000. However, if the BTC price consistently turns down from the recent high; the bears will take advantage to push Bitcoin to the previous lows. However, if the price breaks below the $35,000 support, Bitcoin will decline to $28,000 support. The $35,000 has been the crucial support level. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is trading at $39,222 as buyers struggle below the $40,000 high.
