Analyzing the Charts

If we switch to the 1-hour timeframe for Bitcoin, the levels we were eyeing yesterday were the $27,000 and the $28,200 mark.

As speculated in our previous analysis, the price did drop below $27,000 after facing rejection at $28,200 and is now heading lower.

The price needs to regain the $27,000 mark in the immediate short term, or we will see a further correction for Bitcoin. Right, now, it seems like BTC will reject $27,000 on the retest and will be heading toward major support at $25,000.

The $25,000 was also the previous resistance BTC was facing in the month of March. It is the level from where Bitcoin broke out last time, and a retest of this area looks highly likely.

The $25K region is also highly likely to act as strong support. If the price does visit this level, a strong bounce-back is also on the cards.

Conclusion: Final Verdict on Bitcoin (BTC)

Bitcoin is currently trading below the support at $27,000 and is looking bearish in the immediate short term. It is crucial for BTC to reclaim the support at $27,000 before it closes multiple daily candles below it. If the price continues to stay in this zone longer, it will touch the $25,000 mark soon. A failed retest of $27,000 in the coming hours will also give us a shorting opportunity against Bitcoin.
