Bitcoin market gets rid of “extreme fear”
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView recorded a classic BTC / USD peak on hourly time frames, earning $ 2000 per hourlight.
The pair reached a daily low of $ 48,656 on Bitstamp before a sudden trend reversal that brought back the psychologically important $ 50,000 level.
As positive signals began to pour in from the big names on social media, sentiment also felt the benefit, rejecting “extreme fear” for the first time since crashing on December 3 under $ 42,000.
Meanwhile, the popular trader Rekt Capital, which previously observed healthy behavior on the weekly chart, said that BTC’s price action could mimic the recovery from the massive fall in September. This involved working between the two exponential moving average lines (EMA).
“Bitcoin will probably repeat the consolidation period it also had after the crash in May 2021,” he tweeted.
“This merger takes place between the 50-week blue EMA support and the 21-week green EMA resistance.”

A quick look at the bitcoin balances on exchanges added to the positive, the reserves are at the lowest level in many years and much lower when bitcoin traded with four digits.
