Bitcoin Price Fails to Break Below $8,000 After String of Red<\/h2>\n

Yesterday, Bitcoin price<\/a> broke below $8,500 and before 24 hours was up, another $500 was erased from the value of the leading cryptocurrency by market cap.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bears were able to keep the selling momentum going, taking Bitcoin price back down to the low $8,000 range. Bulls, however, were able to defend the critical support area, protecting the crypto market from further drawdown.<\/span><\/p>\n

$8,000 is an important zone of support, which broke down back in October to a local low of $7,300.

The powerful move from $7,300 was the crypto asset\u2019s third-largest single-day performance in its short history, and the zone is likely being protected by bulls who filled long bids in that area.<\/span><\/p>\n

$8,000 Is a Make It Or Break It Support Level for BTC<\/h2>\n

$8,000 is a critical support level that must hold, or a dramatic drop similar to what was seen back in November 2018 may be possible.

A strong move below $8,000 would further cause long traders who bid in the low $7,000 range to close out, and stops below that area would act as rocket fuel, driving the price of Bitcoin down quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n
