The cryptocurrency market has recently experienced some positive momentum, but prominent analysts are cautioning that Bitcoin (BTC) might face a downturn.
Peter Brandt, a seasoned analyst, has highlighted concerns about Bitcoin’s current price behavior.
Brandt observed that Bitcoin’s recent consolidation does not resemble a bullish flag pattern but rather indicates a downward channel.
He applied traditional charting techniques from Schabacker, Edwards, and Magee to his analysis and concluded that the prevailing trend points to potential declines. The pattern, characterized by lower highs and lows, suggests that Bitcoin could see further drops.
Brandt’s analysis implies that if the downward trend persists, market selling pressure might intensify, potentially driving Bitcoin’s price below its current levels.

For Bitcoin to break through the key resistance level of $70,000, it will need a boost in fund inflows.
Currently, BTC is trading around $68,000.
