The cryptocurrency market continues its volatile trend, with Bitcoin 
$78,680 recently experiencing significant corrections. Analyst Michaël van de Poppe evaluated the current state of the market, suggesting that new movements could be triggered by investor buy orders. Market sentiment and technical indicators signal a potential recovery.
Bitcoin Price Searches for a Bottom
The Bitcoin price has faced pressure in recent weeks, falling to $86,141 last Monday, marking its lowest level in three months. This sharp decline resulted in $1.58 billion in liquidations. According to van de Poppe, Bitcoin is establishing a lower base in this correction, with the possibility of reaching a bottom in the $83,000-$87,000 range.
Van de Poppe noted that these levels could trigger pending buy orders in the market. He emphasized that as Bitcoin collects liquidity, the current negative sentiment might support a reversal. At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $88,118.
Altcoin Market and TOTAL3 Index
Fluctuations in Bitcoin also impact the altcoin market. Van de Poppe highlighted the TOTAL3 index, which measures the market value of cryptocurrencies excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum 
$2,316. He indicated that maintaining the index above $750 billion could support a new upward movement for altcoins.
The analyst believes that the current technical indicators for the altcoin market are showing positive signals. If support levels are maintained, the likelihood of recovery could strengthen. Investors should closely monitor market data and adjust their strategies accordingly.
The market has reached oversold levels during this downturn. Depending on investor sentiment, short-term strategies may vary. Current data suggest that buying opportunities may be worth considering.
