Technical analysis by Gwen_Humuna about Symbol BTC on 12/8/2023

Bitcoin price faces potential decline Bitcoin is currently trading at $43,241 after failing to surpass the $44,500 level, leading to minor adjustments. While broader market prospects suggest an upward trend at the time of writing, the short-term picture leans slightly towards a downward trajectory. This is evidenced by the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. The diminishing green bars indicate a weakening upward trend, implying vulnerability to a Bitcoin price drop. However, BTC is likely to drop back to $42,000 or even $40,000 if the previously established support levels are breached. This is a short-term scenario, pending a stronger-than-expected NFP report. Yet, if the report is weaker or broader market signals turn bullish, a recovery from the $42,000 level becomes plausible. This would propel an upward movement, pushing Bitcoin prices beyond $44,500 and negating the bearish outlook.
