Bitcoin Price Controversy: Is BTC Heading Lower or On the Verge of a Surge?
September 15, 2024 8:30 1 min. read
Bitcoin sentiment has shifted slightly towards the positive after a recent dip, with the cryptocurrency testing the $60,000 mark. Despite this, technical analyst Alan Santana has voiced a bearish outlook, suggesting that Bitcoin’s price chart indicates a downward trend.
Santana, known for his technical analysis on TradingView, reiterated his short position in a September 14 update, emphasizing his belief that the market will decline based on current chart patterns.
Santana’s analysis highlights a history of market misjudgment, where widespread optimism did not align with technical indicators. He has opened short positions at $56,000, $58,000, and $60,000, setting a stop-loss at $66,000 and targeting a drop to as low as $39,000 for maximum profit.
While Santana maintains a bearish stance, other analysts present a more optimistic view for Bitcoin’s long-term prospects. For instance, Credible Crypto has noted a bullish trend and is preparing for a significant upward movement. Similarly, AI predictions suggest Bitcoin could reach $90,000 by the end of 2024, a forecast also supported by Cryptorphic, which anticipates a price of $93,000.
The market remains volatile with contrasting opinions, reflecting its unpredictable nature. As Santana cautions, leveraged trading carries risks and requires careful strategy, underscoring the necessity for stop-loss measures in uncertain conditions.
