PriceBitcoin price (BTC) is in a downtrend and continues its decline.
Bitcoin price long term forecast: bearish
On September 18, Bitcoin turned down from the 21-day line SMA, signalling the resumption of selling pressure. On September 17, buyers failed to push Bitcoin above the 21-day line SMA, leading to the current downtrend. On the downside, Bitcoin could regain the previous lows of $18,675 and $18,638. However, if the bears break below these price levels, Bitcoin will be forced to retarget the critical support level of $17,605. However, if the bulls fail to defend the current support levels, it will lead to another round of downtrends. In other words, if the bearish scenario is confirmed, there will be panic buying and selling of the BTC price.
