Bitcoin Sellers Get Aggressive, The Price Could Drop To $7,000

The Bitcoin sellers started massively selling and the price has continued to trade sideways around $8,000 after slightly recovering from the recent drop to the upper $7,000 region. However, the bulls have failed to gain any notable upwards momentum after the slight recovery which may cause some trouble for the near-term price action as we are about to see in the bitcoin news now.

Analysts are now explaining that Bitcoin’s ‘’bedrock’’ support in the near-term is now hovering around $7,000 and the aggressive selling of Bitcoin could mean that it will revisit this level in the near future. At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading down reaching a price of $8,040 which marks a slight recovery from the recent low of $7,900 that was set earlier this week. It is important to note that the upper $7,000 region has proven to be a very strong level of support for the past few days but the BTC bulls didn’t manage to post any notable extensions of the upward momentum.

The popular crypto analyst on Twitter DonAlt tried to explain the bitcoin sellers and their decision to start selling aggressively and he even said that he believes Bitcoin’s near term ‘’bedrock’’ support will stand at $7,000 which may be the ideal price region for the traders:

 “$BTC update: Still no close above $8750. Still looks pretty shitty. I’m bearish until BTC starts reclaiming levels instead of getting rejected by them. Next resistance: $8200. Next support: $7700. Next support that I’d trust to trade on the long side: $7000,” he explained.

Another popular crypto analyst Cantering Clark was supporting DonAlt’s notion that bitcoin could soon incur further downside and he noted that the selling pressure that bitcoin is facing has been quite significant in recent times:

 “I have gone ahead and highlighted imbalances between buyers and sellers >250% $btc. Look how disproportionate the market selling volume is to the buying volume. Sometimes 5-10x as much. Negative delta circled red. Positive delta circled green. This is aggressive ass selling,” he explained.

If the massive selling pressure persists, it is very likely that Bitcoin will drop lower until it reaches a significant support level of $7,000 which could be a long-term bottom that precedes the next bull run.
