The world’s most popular cryptocurrency traded flat for the better part of the last 24 hours, with an intraday high of around $8,400. In the last couple of hours, BTC took a sudden dip to under the $8,200 price mark, showing a loss of more than 2% on the day.
Bitcoin’s average daily trading volume hovers around $15 million, while its market share decreased to 66.3%, which is the lowest level since the beginning of August.
Cointelegraph contributor filbfilb expects Bitcoin to take a further dip and test the $8,000 price mark once again. He told subscribers of his Telegram channel:
“Moving averages are crossed bearish on every major timeframe up to but not including the weekly.”
On the positive side, BTC is still up 120% compared to the beginning of the year when it was trading in the range of low $3,000s.
