Bitcoin Price Correction Risk Rises as $15K Surge Fails to Clear Resistance
Bitcoin's rapid surge to near $80,000 has brought about increased concerns of a price correction. The cryptocurrency's price dropped to around $77,325 after failing to break through the $80,000 resistance level.
The sharp advance was led by spot exchange-traded fund inflows and changing US liquidity expectations. However, heavy whale selling and stretched momentum have raised red flags for traders.
The Fear and Greed Index has jumped from 34 last week to 71 today, indicating a shift towards greed in the market. This rapid change in sentiment can leave the market vulnerable to disappointing flows.
