Bitcoin - The trend turns neutral
Over the past month, Bitcoin lost much of its bearish momentum; indeed, it became stuck within the wide range, oscillating from one side to another. Because of the trend turning neutral we were forced to abandon our price targets for the 2nd time. Currently, we stay out of the market and decide to observe it for a while before running to new conclusions. However, we have to note that fundamental bearish factors have not changed. The prospect of higher interest rates, economic tightening, and global crisis continue to threaten the cryptocurrency market. Because of that, we still think there is a high likelihood for BTCUSD to make a new low in 2022. Although, despite that, we think the general stock market and cryptocurrency sector might be positioning themselves for the significant bear market rally. At the moment, the upside potential for BTCUSD is near 24 000 USD, which coincides with the 50-day SMA. Meanwhile, the downside potential for BTCUSD in 2022 is near its recent lows.
