Bitcoin price was beaten by the bears after trading around the $20,000 mark for quite some time. Over the past 24 hours, the coin has dropped 2.1 percent, and over the past week, the Bitcoin price has lost nearly 5 percent of its value.
At the moment, it is trading at a price of $19,000. The price fluctuations of the cryptocurrency market are directly related to US Federal Reserve’s move to raise interest rates.
Similarly, Bitcoin continues to face selling pressure on the chart.
The technical outlook continues to show a decrease in purchasing power. If the coin continues to show minimal price action, the Bitcoin price could once again drop to the $18,000 region.
There is a tight zone in which Bitcoin is already traded, and without the help of buyers, a move above the current resistance zone seems unlikely.
In this case, Bitcoin could fall sharply in subsequent trading sessions.
