Trader Notes: Crypto trader Kevin drew parallels to historical patterns and stated that in the year 2023 crypto did not get going until the later part of the year, concluding that “potentially the same thing is happening.”

Another trader expects a deviation into the $60,000s before a move down to $50,000. Bitcoin Ape marks $55,000 as a support level for Bitcoin with no signs yet that this is the bottom. He believes that a breakdown below this level “will send the price down into the $45,000 range” but doesn’t believe the bull market is over.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin trader Blackwidow clarifies that the BTC chart is in a downtrend for three months and it has nothing to do with Germany. He stated that this is just used as an explanation for price action. He concluded, “Resistance points noted on chart – must start closing above $58,500 as step 1 of reversal.”
