Bitcoin (BTC), at the time of writing this analysis, was trading above $6k at $6,376.89 and retained support from 50-day daily MA. The downtrend that started in the previous week experienced a bullish engulfing as the price of BTC rose above $6k after briefly retesting major support at $5,800. The previous week had exhibited price accumulation until the Bitcoin price hit the support and gained back the lost traction. However, the first day of the ongoing week was quite a gainer until the market bumped into a prototype of price accumulation today.
Analyzing the price movement of BTC/USD, we see that the coin broke the bearish streak as it briefly rose to $6.6k after hitting $5,800. The loss of traction cannot surprise the investors enough as the major investment avenues have been facing massive selloffs amidst the outbreak of the deadly virus, yet bitcoin and other altcoins have been maintaining a manageable momentum after the market crashed to yearly lows earlier this month.
