Bitcoin - The weekend session forecasts more pain

Short
BITSTAMP:BTCUSD   Bitcoin
On Friday, we said it would not surprise us to see Bitcoin plunge below 20 000 USD. The following day, Bitcoin fell to a new low at 19 766 USD. Since then, the price action has been mostly sideways. At the moment, Bitcoin trades near the 20 000 USD price tag.

We stay bearish as fundamental factors weighing on the market have not changed. Additionally, technical aspects are worsening and pointing to an impeding acceleration of the selloff. Accordingly, we maintain a bearish stance on Bitcoin in the short, medium, and long term.

Indeed, we believe BTCUSD is headed to new lows over time; therefore, our price targets are at 17 500 USD and 15 000 USD.
