According to the trader, the decline follows recent developments related to Evergrande, which really caught attention last week at a time when a bearish reversal pattern was forming for Bitcoin.
It may take several weeks for Evergrande developments to make themselves felt and spread in global financial markets, suggesting that traders are facing a period of increased volatility.
Traders expect a rally from $ 42,000 to $ 44,000
The crypto analyst and Twitter user with the nickname “CryptoCapo” provides insights into the most important levels to be observed sent The graph below highlights the support area between $ 42,000 and $ 44,000 and the lower support at $ 38,000.

“I bet a rebound from the blue zone, but if he breaks that zone and tests again, the green zone will be played. Both are good starting prices for the coming months ($ 100,000+). “

The market seems oversold at the moment

Oversold bullish divergence with RSI up.
Overbought (almost) bearish divergence with RSI and bearish. I didn’t look at the chart this weekend, I missed it.
Now oversold again, I will look for another bullish divergence before considering another entry. pic.twitter.com/Bpu4CtlFIL

As pointed out by Melker, BTC’s weekend price action warned of Monday’s pullback as it formed an overbought bearish divergence with a falling RSI.
Now that the market is back in oversold territory, analysts are looking for another bullish divergence, which is a signal that a safe re-entry into the market is possible.
The total crypto market cap is $ 1.952 trillion and the dominance of Bitcoin is 42.5%.
