Bitcoin has marked this fresh decline below $7,000 after a fortnight now. Accordingly, the market cap of the coin has also marked a notable decrease. However, the current price correction shows a positive movement at present.
Analyzing the 4-hourly movement of BTC/USD on Bitstamp, we see that the coin has been moving quite volatile in the given time frame. Bitcoin trading price also seems to form a declining price channel if it maintains the current momentum and trend of trading. The 20-day Bollinger Bands laid also confirm the upcoming volatility as the Bands widen. Also, the candles are seen hitting and breaking through the lower Bollinger Band.
However, it is still supported by the short-term and medium-term MA, as the long-term MA is away due to the intraday fall in the price of BTC. At present, as per Bitcoin future price predictions, we foresee a tailing decline; therefore, we believe that if the coin falls further, investors should mark a stop loss and TP.
