With the price of Bitcoin briefly falling below $87,000, the acquisition ended at an average price of $90,061 per Bitcoin, showing the tendency of Strategist to buy in the period of falling prices.
Strategic Total Bitcoin Holdings rose to 712,647 BTC with recent acquisitions, which cost about $54.19 billion at an average price of $76,037 per coin. Interestingly, Strategy had already bought around 40,100 Bitcoin in January, exceeding its purchases of the previous five months combined, indicating a significant increase in purchasing activity.
The sale of a portion of the preferred stock and the sale of Class A common stock (MSTR) provided the bulk of the purchase price. The continued accumulation of Bitcoin by the company strengthens the confidence of strong institutions in Bitcoin, as the shares of Strategy fell together with the decline of the entire market.
Despite the short-term volatility, long-term Bitcoin holders, such as Strategy, believe they have a long-term future for Bitcoin, and support higher prices during downturns.
Bitcoin Price Prediction: $88K Base Acts as Bottom of Its End
On the technical side, the price structure of Bitcoin has started to change, as it is currently trading around $88,600, stabilizing after a significant drop from the $95,500-96,000 area. On the 4-hour chart, the price remains within the destructive path, but the breakout from $86,200 was marked by a long long shadow, indicating an entry order rather than a forced sale. This indicates that the price has been taken close to the support level, not its collapse.
The price of Bitcoin is still locked below the 50 and 100 Exponential Moving Average (EMA), near the level of $ 90,500-91,000, which represents the first barrier to recovery. As long as the price of Bitcoin remains below this level, the short-term bearish pattern remains. However, the market pattern is starting to resemble a bearish trend, a trend that usually rises when sales decline.
Momentum supports this change. The RSI rebounded from the level near 30, while the price fell slightly, indicating an early bullish divergence. Recent candles show small bodies and weak traction in the downtrend, which is consistent with consolidation rather than continuation of trends.
If the price of Bitcoin remains above $88,000, it will open the way up to $90,900 and $93,300, with an end of $95,500. As for the price going down to $ 86,200, it will slow down the recovery and show it at the level of $ 84,400, without affecting the market conditions.
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) trading opinion: Buy on dips near $87,500 – $88,000, stop losses below $85,800, targets for $93,000 – $95,000.
