Indeed, the flagship cryptocurrency has maintained its position above the psychological $100,000 level since early May, but it has not exactly built on this momentum. The latest on-chain data has provided insight into Bitcoin’s current reluctance to move and its possible trajectory in the coming weeks.
The first of these highlighted indicators is the Fixed Range Volume Profile (FRVP) Intensive Swap Level (ISL), which is a refined support or resistance level derived from the FRVP showing key areas where buyer-seller dominance flipped with intensive volume.
According to Kesmeci, the FRVP intensive swap level is roughly $95,000, meaning this zone is a significant resistance level. The online pundit also noted that if Bitcoin’s price were to fail to stay above this price level, it could further increase the sell pressure in the cryptocurrency market.
The analyst also identified the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA50) as critical to the short-term trend. Kesmeci highlighted that the SMA50 is almost at $105,000 — the same level which, interestingly, BTC is about to close below for the second time. If Bitcoin successfully closes below this SMA50, the on-chain analyst inferred that it could catalyze the downside movement of the flagship cryptocurrency.
As if it weren’t bad enough, Kesmeci also noted that lower lows are being formed in the RSI, and this stands as further proof that the market is currently seller-dominated.
Additionally, the crypto pundit referenced the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA200) as another confirmation of his bias. True enough, the SMA200 is observed to converge near $95,000. Amidst Bitcoin’s price fall, Burak advised that market participants stay prepared for the highlighted support zone, as good opportunities to buy might surface around it.
As of this writing, Bitcoin is valued at about $101,596, reflecting a 1.3% price decline over the past 24 hours.
