Bitcoin - Do not get fooled by "double bottom" forecasts
Actualizado
Bitcoin is up more than 5% after an overnight move. Despite that, we remain unshaken by the rising volatility and stick to a bearish outlook for the rest of 2022. At the moment, however, we will pay close attention to volume, price, and sloping resistance. If the price breaks above the sloping resistance, it will further bolster a bullish case for Bitcoin in the short term. In addition to that, we speculate that many people will try to forecast double bottom and buy here, dragging price higher.
Although we do not expect relief to last and turn into recovery. Instead, we think a bounce will be very short-lived, and more downward pressure will follow. Additionally, we expect Bitcoin to mark new lows over time and reaffirm our bearish thesis.
This view is supported by economic tightening on a global scale, rising volatility, and the market progressing into the second stage of the downtrend. Because of that, we remain committed to our price targets of 17 500 USD and 15 000 USD.

RSI is bullish. Stochastic points to the upside but stays in the bearish area; the same applies to MACD. DM+ and DM- are bearish, striving for the bullish crossover. Overall, the daily time frame is neutral/slightly bullish.
