Bitcoin Today: suspicious transactions and the date from SEC
Price
New lows prior to the weekend. As was expected, the descend to the $3500 triggered sell-offs which brought the price to the $3300 at this moment. It is worth noticing, that the opening of the $3000 - $3500 zone pumped up volumes, seems that there are believers that $3000 will fit for the bottom and price will start to make a turnaround at this level. So, for now, support is $3000 - $3300 zone, resistance – Bearish Line and $3700, all movements below $3700 will fit into the downtrend scenario.
Lately, news background was saturated with “suspicious large BTC transactions” news, could this be the first glimpse of the reversal, or investors were trying to sell the last holdings on the OTC markets before the further crash, only the time will show. The only truth is that we know is that $3000 is psychologically cornerstone level, turnaround on such oversold lows could bring some significant rise and breakthrough of this level could break-down the market.
Today forecast
Trading Bounds: $3000 – $4000. Breakthrough below $3000 – possible panic and collapse. Rise above $4000 could ignite buyers and elevate the price couple levels up.
