BTC/USD pair yesterday established a new intraday low at 6132-fiat, a level that attracted buyers waiting to buy the dip, and has gained as much as 7% value ever since. The early Asian trading hours today witnessed a weak upside momentum, due to which price dropped towards 6182-fiat. However, in the mid-European session, the BTC/USD formed a bull flag following a sudden influx of buying orders. The pair gained 6 percent during the upside rally.

But if one notices, the correction is as volatile as the fall was. We are still forming a baby ascending line at this moment that could fail to extend its stay – we are still in a downward trajectory. Let’s have a look at it in our technical analysis section.

BTCUSD Technical Analysis
As long holders, we decided to look into bear trajectory formation, indicating that the downside momentum is not decreasing, but intensifying. We are once again close to testing it and realizing a pattern of bulls leaving their long position near the trajectory resistance. If it breaks, the BTC/USD can push itself towards the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level at 6780-fiat. This could be also where bulls exit their long positions and cause a pullback.

As far as moving averages are concerned, the BTC/USD pair is still below its 50H, 100H, and 200H ones. The RSI and Stochastic, in the meantime, are in the selling area, awaiting further upside correction.
