Is Bitcoin Bearish Again?

24.10.24 03:48 AM By Stormrake

Bitcoin has turned bearish in the short-term trend and is currently testing key support levels, which is expected after its rapid move from $59k to $69k in less than a week. Short-term volatility and pullbacks are anticipated and should be seen as opportunities to buy the dip. With Bitcoin less than 10% away from its all-time high, just one or two bullish days could propel BTC to new heights, so be prepared.

The long-term bullish structure and sentiment remain strong, especially with CME dealers recently doubling the number of long positions over shorts. This marks the largest open long positions in over a year. The dealers’ directional bet on Bitcoin’s rise, combined with asset managers reducing their long exposure, creates a strong confluence of indicators suggesting Bitcoin is poised for significant upward movement. While short-term volatility may still occur, the dealers' confidence reduces the likelihood of a major pullback or a return to bearish conditions.

If you're worried about missing out, don’t be. Use these dips to strengthen your Bitcoin position before the rally takes off—it's not too late, you’re still early. Now is the perfect time to enter the market if you have long-term confidence in the crypto space. Reach out to your Stormrake Crypto Broker to seize these golden opportunities.

Stormrake Spotlight: GOAT ($0.4739)

Goatseus Maximus, the memecoin behind the first AI crypto millionaire, has gained significant attention. Truth Terminal, an AI chatbot, became the first AI crypto millionaire through its involvement with the meme coin "GOAT" on the Solana blockchain. Initially promoting the fictional "Goatse Gospel," the project gained traction when Marc Andreessen donated $50,000 in Bitcoin, leading to the creation of GOAT. Andreessen noted that GOAT "is the first example of a convergence point between AI and crypto." Truth Terminal’s promotion helped boost GOAT’s value to over $500 million, with its assets surpassing $1 million. The meme has rapidly grown on Crypto Twitter, with many speculating that it could reach a $1 billion market cap, reflecting AI's expanding role in cryptocurrency.

This is a highly speculative memecoin, so proceed with extreme caution and allocate accordingly.

BTC/USD Key Levels and Price Action:

The key level of $66.8k was tested four times over the last 24 hours and held strong, bolstered by the 200 moving averages at this level. After bouncing off this support, BTC is now aiming to break above the 55 EMA, which lies at $67.7k, where we can expect resistance. If BTC breaks through, we can anticipate a retest of the monthly CPR resistance at $69k.

Over the past 24 hours, Ethereum experienced a bearish cross of the 21 and 55 EMA, signaling a short-term bearish trend. If this trend continues, we could see ETH decline to the key level of $2,556. However, if ETH manages to break back above its moving averages, we may see a retest of the recent high at $2,769.
