Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC price moves focusing on the area around $25,700.

Michaël van de Poppe, founder and CEO of trading firm Eight, flagged the 200-week exponential moving average (EMA) at $25,670 as the key level to watch on weekly timeframes.

Fellow trader and analyst Toni Ghinea was more categorical, eyeing $25,000 and lower next for Bitcoin, with altcoins also due to suffer.


“I said 25k will happen. I said that ALTS will make new lows. I’m now saying $BTC will nuke to 19-23k,” he wrote in an X post. “This move down is far from over. Ignore the ETF narrative. It’s only used to manipulate the market. Soon it will be time to buy.” 


Ghinea referenced the ongoing battle to launch the United States’ first Bitcoin spot price exchange-traded fund (ETF) — a key low-timeframe volatility source in recent weeks.Dollar stokes crypto, risk asset concerns

“This rally by the dollar will continue to be a drain on risk assets, especially those the furthest up the risk curve (i.e. crypto),” analyst Benjamin Cowen wrote in part of X analysis.

“Price action for the U.S. Dollar Index #DXY is extremely bullish (and therefore bearish for financial assets),” Caleb Franzen, senior analyst at Cubic Analytics, added.“When it broke above the 200-day moving average cloud & the trendline from 2022 highs, I said it was important to listen. Now we’ve flipped them into support.”
