The price of Bitcoin witnessed a pullback on Tuesday amid a general bearish sentiment around the crypto market, after the digital asset reached the $69,000 threshold.

Bitcoin Might Undergo Further Correction

Following the correction, several predictions of a further decline in the price of Bitcoin from top crypto analysts have surfassed. Cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez has highlighted a few indicators that suggest a continuous retracement in price.

Martinez took to the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to share his projections with the crypto community. According to Ali Martinez, on the daily chart of Bitcoin, the Tom DeMark (TD) Sequential indicator presently “flashed a sell signal.”

The crypto analyst believes that this development deserves to be closely monitored. This is because the indicator “boasts a solid history of predicting Bitcoin trends” since the beginning of the year.

He further pointed out that the indicator suggested a buy signal earlier in January, which was followed by a 34% rise in Bitcoin’s price. In addition, in the middle of last month, the indicator also suggested a sell signal, after which Bitcoin plummeted by over 4%.

With the TD Sequential presently developing a sell signal, BTC might be poised to undergo a correction in the short term. However, there is no guarantee that the price of BTC will see a correction following the signal.

Martinez also underscored the accuracy of the pointer in predicting BTC’s price movement, which he believes to be “remarkably insane.” In a previous projection, Martinez asserted that BTC has declined by “1.5% to 4.7%, each time the indicator recommends a selling” since February 15.

As a result, short-term traders should carefully observe the trend in order to position themselves for future gains. So far, some market watchers feel that Bitcoin’s retracement was necessary, and they perceive the fall as a positive move.

BTC Could See A 20% Drop This Time Around

Martinez is not the only expert that has predicted a pullback in the short term. Crypto Jelle has also shared his negative forecast for BTC, pointing to a 20% price correction.

Jelle noted as BTC moves towards its all-time high of $69,000, “there will be downturns along the way.” He further stated that this “time around,” it seems BTC might decline by 20%.

Thus, the crypto analyst has urged not to be shaken by the outcome while telling them to “take advantage” of the development when it occurs. This is because Jelle believes that the key to making it in the crypto space is patience.

Currently, the price of Bitcoin is down by over 2% in the last 24 hours, trading slightly above $66,000. Despite the price drop, its trading volume is up by over 37%, while its market cap is down by 2%.

Godspower Owie

My name is Godspower Owie, and I was born and brought up in Edo State, Nigeria. I grew up with my three siblings who have always been my idols and mentors, helping me to grow and understand the way of life.

My parents are literally the backbone of my story. They’ve always supported me in good and bad times and never for once left my side whenever I feel lost in this world. Honestly, having such amazing parents makes you feel safe and secure, and I won’t trade them for anything else in this world.

I was exposed to the cryptocurrency world 3 years ago and got so interested in knowing so much about it. It all started when a friend of mine invested in a crypto asset, which he yielded massive gains from his investments.

When I confronted him about cryptocurrency he explained his journey so far in the field. It was impressive getting to know about his consistency and dedication in the space despite the risks involved, and these are the major reasons why I got so interested in cryptocurrency.

Trust me, I’ve had my share of experience with the ups and downs in the market but I never for once lost the passion to grow in the field. This is because I believe growth leads to excellence and that’s my goal in the field. And today, I am an employee of Bitcoinnist and NewsBTC news outlets.

My Bosses and co-workers are the best kinds of people I have ever worked with, in and outside the crypto landscape. I intend to give my all working alongside my amazing colleagues for the growth of these companies.

Sometimes I like to picture myself as an explorer, this is because I like visiting new places, I like learning new things (useful things to be precise), I like meeting new people - people who make an impact in my life no matter how little it is.

One of the things I love and enjoy doing the most is football. It will remain my favorite outdoor activity, probably because I'm so good at it. I am also very good at singing, dancing, acting, fashion and others.

I cherish my time, work, family, and loved ones. I mean, those are probably the most important things in anyone's life. I don't chase illusions, I chase dreams.

I know there is still a lot about myself that I need to figure out as I strive to become successful in life. I’m certain I will get there because I know I am not a quitter, and I will give my all till the very end to see myself at the top.

I aspire to be a boss someday, having people work under me just as I’ve worked under great people. This is one of my biggest dreams professionally, and one I do not take lightly. Everyone knows the road ahead is not as easy as it looks, but with God Almighty, my family, and shared passion friends, there is no stopping me.
