Analysts Skeptical of Bear Bias After $400 Drop"},"content":{"rendered":"

As you are likely aware, Bitcoin<\/a> (BTC) hasn’t done too well over the past two-odd days. Since Friday, the cryptocurrency has shed 6% of its value, tanking from $9,250 to $8,700 in a strong move lower that came after nearly two weeks of bullish consolidation above $9,000.<\/p>\n

Despite this relatively mild price action, which wasn’t exactly a move that slaughtered bulls per se, a number of traders have flipped bearish. Bloomberg, for instance, wrote that there is a likelihood that if the bearish pressure persists for a little more, Bitcoin will trend all the way back to $7,300<\/a> \u2014 back where it was prior to the most recent swing upwards.<\/p>\n

This sentiment, according to a number of analysts, is irrational.<\/p>\n

Bears Are Irrational?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Popular crypto trader Mayne recently noted<\/a> that the “people waiting for $6,000” are irrational. He quipped that Bitcoin retracing and consolidating after its fourth-biggest bull move in history ($7,300 to $10,500, a 42% gain) is perfectly par for the course, but noted that it’s totally possible we can go lower from $8,800.<\/p>\n

\n

$BTC<\/a> has it's 4th biggest bull move ever, $7.2k-$10.5k, and now we are retracing after consolidating. My feed, totally bearish again.<\/p>\n

We can go lower sure, but I think the same people waiting for $6k are going to be waiting for $7k and will buy back above $10k.<\/p>\n

Never change CT!<\/p>\n
