Technical Summary
Bitcoin trades at $78,501.81, down 5.82% in 24h, breaching MicroStrategy's cost basis of $76,037 for the first time since Oct 2023. Price sits below EMA20 ($87,335), EMA50 ($89,856), and EMA200 ($103,955), confirming downtrend with Supertrend bearish. Oversold RSI (24.64) and Stochastic (14.32/17.07) suggest exhaustion, but negative MACD histogram (-2527 vs -1168) warns of further downside.

Indicator Deep Dive
RSI(14) 24.64: Deeply oversold, potential bullish divergence if volume spikes. MACD bearish crossover (line -2527 < signal -1168), expanding histogram downside. Stochastic oversold (K14/D17). ATR 2975 signals high volatility. Price below all MAs, OBV likely declining (inferred from volume $39.8B on drop).
Pattern Recognition
Bearish channel intact post-24h high $83,392, with lower highs/lows. Breach below Fibo 0.0 ($75,720) eyes extension to 1.272 ($64,655). Oversold Bollinger squeeze hints reversal flag if support holds.
Price Scenarios
- Bull: Bounce from S1 $75,720 to R1 $80,285 (target Fib0.236 $85,320), RSI rebound.
- Bear: Breakdown to S2 $64,655, MACD acceleration, crash to $58,878.
- Base: Range $75,720-$80,285, pivot $78,660 consolidation.
Risk/Reward Assessment
Bull scenario: Entry $77,900, stop $75,500 (risk 3%), target $83,160 (reward 6.7%), R/R 2.2:1. Bear: Short $79,000, stop $80,500 (risk 1.9%), target $75,720 (reward 4.2%), R/R 2.2:1. Favor bears until RSI>30/MA reclaim.
Technical Conclusion
Downtrend dominates, but oversold extremes at S1 $75,720 warrant caution. Watch volume for bounce confirmation vs MACD breakdown. Traders: Scale in shorts above R1, longs on support hold with tight stops. (Word count: 478)
