- Bitcoin price gets rejected at the range low at $17,593 and is likely to slip lower.
- Investors can expect BTC to consolidate between the $17,593 to $15,462 barriers.
- A daily candlestick close below $15,462 will invalidate the recovery thesis and trigger a correction.
Bitcoin price reveals that its quick recovery rally is coming to an end as it faces a critical hurdle. This development has pushed BTC to slide lower and could result in a consolidative structure over the next few days.
Bitcoin price to get boring soon
Bitcoin price shows a clear lack of buying pressure after a 14% upswing in the last 48 hours. This sell-side domination is happening due BTC’s encounter with the $17,593 resistance hurdle, which has played a significant role since June 2022.
Going forward, investors can expect a rangebound movement between $17,593 and $15,462 barriers.
However, a mild bullish scenario could evolve after a successful flip of the $17,593 hurdle into a support floor. This development will allow BTC bulls to extend higher and retest the $18,500 hurdle, which roughly coincides with the 2022 volume point of control, as discussed in this article.
Only after overcoming the $20,000 hurdle will BTC holders be able to speculate about retesting the next crucial huddle at $20,742 and the inefficiency at $22,181.
