Investors who were concerned about further losses are now seeing the price attempting to reclaim $29,500. The uncertainty is not yet eliminated, but there is hope.

Still trading within a tight range, Bitcoin closely followed the US stocks during the Wall Street trading session on August 7. Despite the lack of a sustained momentum in either direction, market participants were looking for signals that a kind of trend reversal might already be here.

“The target of this current formation is $32,000. Can it break the key resistance?”
Van de Poppe, on the other hand, was focused on Thursday’s upcoming US inflation data rather than the $29,500 level being tested at the time of writing. If inflation comes in lower than expected, we may see a temporary recovery in the market.
Glassnode‘s co-founders Yann Allemann and Jan Happel claimed that bears, although still in control, are now exhausted. According to them, a reversal from the local bottom will begin after $28,500 in a potential new wave of selling.
