The Flipside: Can the bears take over?

While the overall outlook looks good for the bulls, there may be a short-term bearish correction around the corner. The 3-day chart for the Bitcoin fork has flashed the TD sequential indicator's sell signal via the green nine candlestick. This could see a price downturn to the 50-bar SMA ($250).

For the buyers, the $276 resistance line is crucial. Breaking past this level should give them a free path to $300.

The sellers will look to capitalize on the sell signal in the 3-day chart and drop the price to the 50-bar SMA ($250).
