Top cryptocurrency analyst \u00a0Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe has charted several bitcoin price levels for traders to watch after the flagship cryptocurrency\u2019s price dropped below the $50,000 mark this week amid a wider market sell-off.<\/p>\n

The trader, who predicted that February and March could see a significant market correction, said he is looking at $47,500 as a support level, which after being broken could see bitcoin drop to $42,000 to $44,000, an area that could present buying opportunities.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin is currently trading at $48,500 after dropping to a $45,000 low. As Daily Hodl reports, van de Poppe pointed out that even if the price of BTC recovers to $52,000 or even $53,000, these levels should be seen as resistance zones. Only a break above $55,000 would break the current downward trend, he said.<\/p>\n

The crypto analyst added that traders who buy at the top of a rally can use the correction to lower their entry price and learn more about when to enter the market, as he believes it\u2019s critical to be patient and wait for healthy pullbacks before entering.<\/p>\n

Per his words, buying at a parabolic rally could see them \u201cbe that top buyer at the end of the next bull cycle,\u201d when instead they should aim to buy \u201cbased on historical price action\u201d so enter the market at a point that could avoid excessive losses.<\/p>\n

The analyst also pointed out that, historically, March is an underperforming month in the cryptocurrency space, and said the bull market would be intact as long as bitcoin\u2019s price stays above $29,000. The analyst wrote:<\/p>\n
