Bitcoin price<\/a> is struggling to get back above $10,000 following recent bearish price action. Last week, Bitcoin dropped nearly $2,000 within 48 hours, and while there was a week of relief in between, the bearish sell pressure appears to have picked up steam once again.<\/span><\/p>\n The latest price action saw Bitcoin price rejected at $10,000 \u2013 an extremely important psychological level for the first-ever cryptocurrency. With this latest rejection following extreme bear pressure and the fear and greed index at the lowest number it’s ever been, what\u2019s next for Bitcoin in the days ahead? <\/span><\/p>\n We\u2019ve all seen the comments on Twitter, Reddit, or elsewhere. \u201cBitcoin will never again drop under five digits.\u201d The overly cocky comments appear in bulk whenever Bitcoin price<\/a> bounces strongly from below $10,000 to back above it \u2013 something that Bitcoin has done repeatedly over the past few months.<\/span><\/p>\n Related Reading | Crypto Analyst Expects 20% Ethereum Drop, Altcoin Capitulation in 2 Weeks\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n But the same comments were made in February and March 2018 as well, and Bitcoin not only feel below $10,000 and stayed there for the rest of the year, but it took until June 2019 to ever break back above $10,000.<\/span><\/p>\n Now, the leading crypto asset by market cap has fallen back below $10,000 after the latest rejection and the price per BTC drops deep below the level, it could be the last time Bitcoin trades above $10,000 for the remainder of the year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There\u2019s no denying that $10,000 is an important number for the first-ever crypto asset. During the last bull run, it acted as a FOMO trigger that took Bitcoin price<\/a> to its all-time high of $20,000. It\u2019s also exactly 50% the last highest peak, which according to legendary trader W. D. Gann<\/a> always acts as extremely strong support.<\/span><\/p>\n But like the last extremely strong support, it can break, and when it does a dangerous drop occurs, much like what did in November 2018. Some analysts are expecting the same thing to happen, once Bitcoin breaks below the current support and symmetrical triangle formation Bitcoin price is trading within.<\/span><\/p>\n Related Reading | CME Futures Gaps Give Likely Correction Targets, Next Bear Market Bottom\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\nFive-Digit Bitcoin Price Taking a Short Vacation<\/span><\/h2>\n
