BTC price centers on $28K as Deutsche Bank shares follow Credit Suisse

Bitcoin (BTC) diced with $28,000 at the March 24 Wall Street open as fresh banking woes failed to provide a further boost to crypto.

Traders stay optimistic on BTC’s long-term trend

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC/USD losing momentum to hit daily lows of $28,001 on Binance.

The pair were attempting to cement support after a classic comeback on March 23 erased panic on the back of the latest United States economic policy moves.

“Typical seeing some panic on that dip, but unless we start to see a shift in market structure, Lower lows and lower highs, then we have nothing to worry about from a bullish perspective,” an optimistic Crypto Tony told Twitter followers.

Popular trader and analyst Rekt Capital was similarly upbeat about overall strength on BTC/USD.

“All BTC needs to do to confirm a new macro uptrend is Monthly Candle Close above ~$25000,” he argued in part of his latest analysis.

“So far, so good.”

Fellow trader Credible Crypto meanwhile suggested that even if BTC/USD were to drop to $23,000, this would not imply a clean break with current bullish behavior.

“A few weeks of chop before we continue our rally would be good for us here. Anything down to 22-23k is fair game and nothing to be concerned about imo,” he wrote on March 23.

On-chain monitoring resource Material Indicators noted that bid liquidity had appeared on the Bitcoin order book in order to prevent a sell-off.

Elsewhere, macro concerns resulting from the U.S. banking crisis increased on March 24 as Deutsche Bank lost value just days after Swiss lender Credit Suisse saw a takeover and government bailout.

“Bank stocks dumping, Yields Dumping. Precious Metals up. Bitcoin a bit flat,” analyst Daan Crypto Trades responded.

“Seems like the TradFi world is continuing the same trend as last week. Let’s see if BTC has more fuel left in it or not.”

At the time of writing, Deutsche Bank shares were down nearly 10% on March 24.
