The consolidation for the entire month of December has continued for Bitcoin as it holds above key support. If the next moves down are similar to the previous ones however it could soon be as low as $5,000 according to one analyst.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Consolidation Continues<\/h2>\n

For another day BTC has held above $7,000<\/a> as its sideways trading continues. A Christmas day dip to $7,120 was quickly recovered as the asset returned to top $7,200 where it currently trades according to Tradingview.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin has remained in this range for a month now but technical signals are starting to show signs of another large movement.<\/p>\n

Trader and analyst \u2018CryptoHamster\u2019 has been observing the Bollinger bands which appear to be squeezing again. This is often a precursor to a large move but overall trends are still bearish.<\/p>\n

\n

Daily Bollinger Bands width has been relatively narrow already for a while. Such periods are getting longer with the every new one.
It is time to get wider, IMO.
(A speculative hint: the order of the moves exiting the narrow BB area is: down – up – …)
