BTC price performance has weakened in recent days, with BTC/USD hitting $28,850 on July 24, data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView confirms.

Despite a brief rebound, market participants remain unconvinced that the largest cryptocurrency has seen the worst of its losses.

For popular trader Crypto Ed, the prior dip to Bitcoin’s lowest since June 21 was entirely expected.

Now, he believes that a final break into buy liquidity should occur, taking BTC/USD to around $28,500. A relief bounce to $29,400 could come first.

“If we do get a move like this, then I’m looking for a setup for more downside and possibly $28,500 - 400, more or less,” he said in his latest YouTube update.

Crypto Ed showed an additional target box covering prices as low as $27,800, but acknowledged that he was unconvinced that Bitcoin would make it there.Low $27,000s to “stop out” bidders

For fellow trader Crypto Chase, the downside could take Bitcoin toward $27,000 before last-minute long entries get suitably burned.

Speculators should end up bidding at major price points as BTC/USD moves down — at $29,200, $28,500 and $28,000, he predicted earlier in July.Gonna be one of those situations where people bid all the way down.. 29.2, 28.5, 28, and once finally stopped in the 27’s, they all turn bearish.

In an update on July 24, he maintained that this was the likely course of events.

“These are still mostly my thoughts. I can’t short now as strong R/R opportunities are behind us, decent entries were not offered based on my strategies,” he acknowledged to Twitter followers.“With that said, feed already turning giga bear, still plan to bid low 27"s for a strong bounce and see where it takes us.”BTC/USD annotated chart.

Nonetheless, various moving averages persist as important lines in the sand, among them the 200-week and 21-week at $27,130 and $28,200, respectively.

“Bitcoin is testing support in a key zone of historical significance,” Keith Alan, co-founder of monitoring resource Material Indicators, summarized on July 24.“Not convinced we’ve found strong support yet, but the 21-Week MA looks like it could provide a stronger foundation.

As Cointelegraph reported, some worst-case scenarios include far deeper drawdowns, with even the loss of $20,000 not entirely off the table.
