The pessimistic outlook for Bitcoin has increased as we head into the second quarter, with analysts warning that the market may remain under pressure amid negative technical and economic factors.
Bitcoin prices have recently fallen by about 3%, approaching the $66,000 level, after failing to sustain previous gains.
The analyst, known as “Mr. Wall Street,” believes that short- and medium-term expectations have turned completely negative after previously being optimistic in the short term.
He explained that the recent 27% rise from $60,000 to $76,000 was likely driven by market makers to provide liquidity ahead of a more severe recession.
He pointed out that any temporary rise that may occur is just a move to attract liquidity before the downward trend resumes.
As a result, he closed out short-term buy positions and opened sell positions, anticipating that his price target could be between $40,000 and $45,000, supported by significant liquidity below current prices.
In addition to technical factors, geopolitical tensions also play an important role in increasing risks, especially the potential escalation of the conflict between the United States and Iran, which could lead to higher oil prices and a slowdown in the global economy, thus negatively affecting high-risk assets such as digital currencies.
On the other hand, “João Wedson” noted that Bitcoin network activity has declined as daily transaction fees have fallen to historic lows, a metric typically associated with periods of severe volatility.
He also warned against getting carried away with temporary gains following a market drop, as in this case buying an asset during a rise may be more suitable for large investors than small traders.
