This marks a massive dip from its recent highs of $38,000 set just a couple of days ago.<\/p>\n<p>The entire market is going fully risk-off, but it doesn\u2019t appear that there\u2019s any clear catalyst for this.<\/p>\n<p>Unless BTC stabilizes here or posts a massive rebound in the near-term, it may decline towards its next key support at $30,000 and $28,000 before posting a v-shaped recovery.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Analyst: BTC Reaches Crucial Support, Making a Bounce Critical<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>One analyst explained in a recent tweet that BTC is in the process of breaking below a key support level that must be defended in the near-term.<\/p>\n<p>He notes that a break below this level could result in massive losses for the aggregated market.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cBTC: TL broke, back at HTF support. As long as selling doesn&#8217;t accelerate further I think Altcoins will perform on their ratio and Bitcoin will chop. Continuation triangle invalidated. With how it looks for now I think more chop is to be expected.
