  • Should the gains of Sunday be totally erased and the low area be broken, another wave of selling would likely take BTC/USD down to $3000.

The Bitcoin price into the second half of the session on Monday, came under some selling pressure once again. After the price had stages a decent rebound on Sunday. BTC/USD gunning back towards the rebound area seen within the $3500 region.
