Bitcoin price (BTC/USD) drops to one-week low in rocky Thursday trading
Bitcoin’s latest struggles come after the coin was rejected at $11,000 earlier this week. Industry website Coindesk noted yesterday that the rejection has strengthened the bear case for Bitcoin.
In a subsequent technical analysis, Coindesk highlighted Bitcoin’s successful defence of the 100-day moving average (MA), but also warned that the bulls were not back in control yet.
“The bearish reversal pattern opened the doors for a retest of the Aug. 15 low of $9,467, as discussed yesterday,” the website wrote earlier today. “So far, however, that target has remained elusive and the dips below the 100-day moving average (MA), currently at $9,900, have been short-lived.”
However, Coindesk added that the outlook would turn bullish only above $10,956.
In today’s trading, the Bitcoin price stood at $9,969.38, as of 12:41 BST. The digital currency has lost 1.7% of its value in the past 24 hours. The coin’s total market capitalisation currently stands at $178.3 billion, which represents 68.6% of the combined value of all digital currencies.
