Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash & Litecoin – European Wrap 4 May

Bitcoin Price Prediction: BTC/USD nosedives towards $8,500 – Confluence Detector

Bitcoin price failed to make a comeback into the $9,000’s range over the weekend. The stability followed an incredible bullish action on Thursday last week that saw the price high new April highs at $9,466. The bullish action was, however, met by increased selling activity and coupled with the high volatility in the market, pulled Bitcoin into a reversal action, the extent of testing new support at $8,400. A minor recovery ensued but Bitcoin stalled under $9,000.
