Technical Indicators for Bitcoin (BTC) Are Flagging Bearish

Number 2 on CoinMarketCap’s trending list and the crypto market leader in terms of market cap, Bitcoin (BTC), has seen its price drop slightly over the last 24 hours.

The 4-hour chart for BTC/USDT shows that the crypto market leader’s price is resting on the 20 EMA line. This EMA line is currently positioned above the 4-hour 50 EMA line and is providing support to BTC at press time. This support may, however, fail to hold as the 4-hour RSI indicator is flagging very bearish.

Currently, the 4-hour RSI SMA line has crossed below the 4-hour RSI SMA line. In addition to this, the RSI line has a steep negative slope. This suggests that BTC’s price will continue falling in the next 4-12 hours.

Additional downward price movement will drag BTC’s price down to the next support level at the 50-EMA level, which is around $16,738.46.

The daily chart for BTC/USDT expresses the same bearishness on BTC’s 4-hour chart. Similar to the 4-hour chart, BTC’s price is resting on the 20-day EMA line. The daily RSI indicator is also showing bearishness as the daily RSI line is sloped negatively towards the oversold territory.

A confirmation of the bearish thesis will be when the daily RSI line crosses below the daily RSI SMA line before the closing of tomorrow’s trading session. This will justify the belief that BTC’s price will drop towards the 50 EMA line on its 4-hour chart.
