BTC’s bullish movement that created excitement in the last few months has been difficult to replicate, and its price is falling with each passing week. BTC’s price after touching its previous all-time high of $19,000, many expected a bounce off the price to new highs to form support, but the price has continued to retest this support zone of $19,000, making it weaker to hold off sell orders.

To regain the $19,000.00 region, the BTC must bounce off the current $18,800 price. A relief rally could not occur if it falls below $19,000.00. This would be bad news for the bulls as well as the cryptocurrency market.
