Bitcoin (BTC) has maintained support above $37,500 over the past month, indicating a loss of downside momentum on the charts.

The cryptocurrency was trading around $41,300 at press time and is roughly flat over the past 24 hours. On intraday charts, however, BTC appears to be overbought, which could briefly stall the current upswing in price.

A series of higher price lows since Jan. 24 suggests continued buying interest around the $32,000-$37,500 support zone, which is the bottom of a year-long price range.

The next major resistance level is seen at $46,700, which has capped price rallies over the past few months. Typically, price rises begin to stall after retracing roughly 38% to 50% of the prevailing downtrend, similar to what occurred in September of last year.

Still, the significant slowdown in BTC's long-term uptrend suggests upside could be limited over the next few months.

K33 Research says market fear is outweighing fundamentals as bitcoin nears key levels. December could offer an entry point for bold investors.

O que saber:

  • K33 Research says bitcoin’s steep correction shows signs of bottoming, with December potentially marking a turning point.
  • The firm has argued that the market is overreacting to long-term risks while ignoring near-term signals of strength, like low leverage and solid support levels.
  • With likely policy shifts ahead and cautious positioning in futures, K33 sees more upside potential than risk of another major collapse.
