Bitcoin Enters August With Losses, Has It Set The Tone For The Month?

Bitcoin has entered into a new month, but its price has not been doing as well as expected. The end of July had indeed come with good tidings as the bitcoin price had broken above $24,000. However, maintaining this point has been a harder task. As the market welcomes the new month of August, bitcoin has not had the best of starts to the new month, entering it with a red daily close.

Bitcoin Going For The Win?

Bitcoin’s recovery over the last week has been propelled forward by different things. The most recent one was the announcement that the United States was now in a recession after recording two consecutive negative GDP growth, causing individuals to find where to park their wealth. Bitcoin naturally provided the perfect hedge for people who were looking to escape the growing inflation, triggering a massive accumulation trend.

The digital asset has already lost more than $2,000 over the last two days. It has also declined below its 50-day moving average once more, the same technical level that had been one of the indicators of the bear trend in previous markets. 

For bitcoin to establish a bullish trend, it must break above $24,800 and hold this level. Otherwise, there is likely to be a rapid decline in price over the next couple of days.
