The situation in the crypto market remains unchanged compared to the levels of yesterday, Monday 10. Bitcoin price continues to correct lower on the day with declines hitting 0.53%. As reported yesterday, Bitcoin volatility levels have tripled in a singled month. The current volatility levels are at per with those recorded in March this year.
In addition to that, the crypto has slipped below $3,400 and is trading at $3.398. The immediate upside is capped by the 100 SMA currently at $3,419. The trendline resistance that began last week is still limiting gains but if the buyers can push the price above it, we could see a correction heading towards the first resistance level at $3,500 (seller concentration zone). The next resistance is observed at $3,600 (another seller concentration area).
As the asset grinds southwards, it will find a support at $3,300 and the next support target that will come in handy is seen at $3,211.77. Indicators on the chart are in the favor of the bears who are intent on seeing BTC/USD at $3,000 or the level that Bobby Lee predicted at $2,500. The popular trader says that the largest asset in the market could bottom out around this level according to past price performance where Bitcoin tanked 87% from its $1,200 all-time high to around $150.
