Bitcoin dropped 4% on Monday and is down 16% since its June 7 high of nearly $72,000, hitting an intra-day low of about $60,000 on Monday.
Bitcoin's months-long rally is showing signs of running out of steam, with the cryptocurrency now at risk of sliding further if it fails to hold onto a key support level.
Bitcoin dropped 4% on Monday and is now down 16% since its June 7 high of nearly $72,000, hitting an intra-day low of about $60,000 on Monday.
But if it doesn't, and bitcoin decisively breaks below $60,000, that suggests the token could continue its descent to its next support level at around $51,500.
"Support is now bolstered by the 200-day MA, giving it more significance," Stockton said in a note to clients on Monday.
Bitcoin's rising 200-day moving average is at just under $58,000.
"There are no 'Buy' signals, so we would await support discovery in bitcoin. Should a breakdown occur, it would put next support near $51,500," Stockton said.
A further decline to $51,500 would represent potential downside of about 15% from current levels, and it would represent a decline of 30% from its record-high of nearly $74,000 reached in March.
