The BTC prices have been moving lower towards the support region as the bulls struggle to gather momentum
The BTC prices have been falling back to their support region around the $10,500 price region and this is probably the third time that this has been happening over the past few days. After staging a big comeback from the recent lows at the $6,000 region, the BTC prices seem to have hit a roadblock in around the medium term resistance of $12,000 and we have been seeing the prices struggle to go through despite their best efforts. It remains to be seen how the market is going to react in the short term as the selling increases pace and the traders begin to get jittery once again.
