Bitcoin price has dropped by 16% since March 8 in the strongest sell-off of recent months. After a devastating decline, the psychology of leading traders on the short-term price trend in many different directions.
Downtrend Bitcoin is just getting started
Bitcoin dropping $ 1,500 overnight led to a liquidation of around $ 185 million.
Long orders with high leverage were forced to adjust their positions or sell when prices started to decline rapidly, causing strong selling pressure on the market.
Although the current situation does not represent a positive or negative correlation between Bitcoin and the vast financial market, Bitcoin traders are cautious about both cryptocurrencies and other risky assets such as individual stocks.
According to global market analyst Alex Krüger, amid rising volatility and unprecedented levels of fear, Bitcoin prices could drop 20% in a short time frame.
Compared to safe-haven assets like gold, Bitcoin's market capitalization remains at just $ 144 billion. If the psychology changes in a sudden direction, it can immediately impact the market trend.
Krüger said:
“BTC in this environment can be reduced by 20% in an hour. Coin may collapse completely, when large whales panic or decide to liquidate positions to margin or hunt profit through other types of assets. There is no analysis Which in The past discovered this".
Since early February, analysts like Adaptive Fund's Nik Yaremchuk said the Bitcoin price would likely test the $ 7,500 area, as it has been acting as a liquidity pool for a long time.
Normally, when a critical support level like the range of $ 7,500 to $ 7,700 is given, it will create a strong reaction from buyers.
Although the price of Bitcoin has risen to around $ 8,000, it has fallen back to a low of $ 7,900 since.

Besides, trader Romano said that while the range of $ 7,700 to $ 8,200 is still a favorable area for long-term buying, the $ 7,670 gained earlier this morning whether or not the bottom is unknown.
Not entirely convinced this was the bottom.
The dream is to long between 7.7k-8.2k and if possible hold till new all highs.
Sad for the people who longed their longs and didn't close close hoping for new all time highs without a pullback….

Expected significant fluctuations
As Joe007, the largest Bitcoin whale on Bitfinex said, Bitcoin price has never experienced the risk of actual recession or global financial market collapse.
In such a period, the trend of BTC price may be more affected by the psychology surrounding the global market, instead of the basic techniques and indices of the cryptocurrency market.
