Mounting concerns about the state of the global economy and traders’ risk-off sentiment continue to weigh on Bitcoin price.

Charts show the Bitcoin price seems to be falling below the 600-day moving average, a sign that could be bearish for the crypto. Bitcoin Begins To Lose 600-Day MA Support Line As Price Crashes Below $39k Again As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, the price of the crypto is crossing below the 600-day MA curve now, a line that has served as support for BTC in the past. A “moving average” (or MA in short) is an analytical tool that takes the average of any quantity over a particular time period. As the name already suggests, this average constantly updates itself as time passes and new values arrive. What this tool does is that it removes any short-term fluctuations from the chart being studied (which is the Bitcoin price in this context), and smooths out the curve. This makes moving averages quite useful for studying long-term trends, where local variations aren’t that important. Related Reading | Is Bitcoin Gonna See Another Big Drop Soon?

The quant in the post believes that if the breakdown fails here, Bitcoin may then use the level as a springboard to push higher. In the case that the breakdown does stand, then a bearish outcome may perhaps be in store for the cryptocurrency. BTC Price At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price floats around $38.8k, down 1% in the last seven days. Over the past month, the crypto has lost 12% in value.
