Bitcoin Weekly Price Analysis – May 5

BTCUSD Long-term Trend – Bearish

Distribution territories: $12,000.00, $13,000.00, $14,000.00.
Accumulation territories: $8,000.00, $7,000.00, $6,000.00.

In spite of lower highs than lower lows on the BTC/USD pair, the long-term trend chart has not been able to make a significant move away from a bearish outlook. On April 29, the pair declined a bit below the accumulation territory of $9,000.00 and on May 1, it reversed northward towards the distribution territory of $10,000.00.

The bulls are currently gaining momentum as the 13-day SMA is now above the 50-day SMA.

The Stochastic Oscillators have now dipped into the overbought zone and are also consolidating their movement within it. Accumulation territories from $8,000.00 and below remain foundational territories.

As it has been observed, the market seems to be recovering from several weeks of selling pressure. The bears are getting weaker against the bulls as has already been shown by price action. It is expected that sooner than later the bulls will eventually gain the hold of the market trend.

Going by this assertion, investors can continue with long entries while the price reverses from what seemingly looks like a bearish move. While traders can look out for long entries with proper money management of either ratio 1 to 2, or 1 to 3.
