The price of Bitcoin has sharply negatively reacted to the attacks of the US Senate on Facebook, dropping below the psychological mark of $ 10,000 and entrenched below the low of July 2 ($ 9,614). This speaks in favor of a trend change to bearish and the likelihood of further decline in the short term, says Omkar Godboul, an analyst at CoinDesk Markets .
So, yesterday was recorded the second largest collapse in a year – by 13.25% in Bitstamp. In the next 24 hours, the analyst emphasized, the price may drop to $ 9097 (maximum on May 30). If the daily candle in UTC closes below this level, the probability of falling to $ 8100 (100-day MA) will greatly increase.
On the daily chart, for the first time since February, prices have been trading below the 50-day MA, which was considered a strong support level, and the 5-day and 10-day MA are directed down. At the same time, the RSI is below 50, which speaks in favor of the sellers. A bearish breakdown, according to Godboul, will now be irrelevant only if the weekly candle closes above $ 12,000.

Nevertheless, oversold was noticed on the 4-hour chart, therefore, it is also not worthwhile to exclude a temporary upward correction, Godbul cautioned.

In the long run, the situation is still in favor of the bulls, until the price of Bitcoin has not overcome the 200-day MA at $ 5980.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at around $ 9,200.
