Bitcoin and the aggregated cryptocurrency markets have faced increasing selling pressure as of late that appears to have put their recently established upwards momentum in jeopardy. Despite this, BTC and other cryptos have yet to incur any massive influxes of selling pressure that lead to the formation of a quick downwards leg.<\/p>\n
Although the recent influx of selling pressure does appear to be bearish, it may all be part of the current uptrend that the markets are in, according to one prominent crypto analyst.<\/p>\n
At the time of writing, Bitcoin<\/a> is trading down over 2% at its current price<\/a> of $7,770 and is currently trading just a hair above its 24-hour lows of $7,750.<\/p>\n Over a one-week period, Bitcoin has dropped significantly from its highs of nearly $8,800, which were set last weekend. It appears that the upper-$8,000 region remains a region of significant resistance for the cryptocurrency, as it has tried and failed on multiple occasions to break above this price level.<\/p>\n Although BTC is currently trading well below its recently established highs, it is important to note that it is still in a firm uptrend, as it has surged over the past 90 days from lows of $3,900 to its recently established highs around $9,000.<\/p>\n Even though the uptrend remains intact from a long-term perspective, over a shorter time frame it is possible that it continues to grind lower.<\/p>\n Big Cheds, a popular cryptocurrency analyst on Twitter, discussed this in a recent tweet, concisely noting that it may continue setting lower lows in the near-future.<\/p>\n \u201c$BTC #Bitcoin 1 hour – Another lower high, on track for a lower low,\u201d Cheds said while referencing the below chart.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n $BTC<\/a> #Bitcoin<\/a> 1 hour – Another lower high, on track for a lower low https:\/\/t.co\/xGdN4ZZRlG<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/8Mk7kysd5E<\/a><\/p>\n — Cheds (Trading Quotes) (@BigCheds) June 9, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
