Despite the decline of bitcoin to $33 000, the asset has not yet broken the support level, which is located in this range. The cryptocurrency has fallen more than 16% in less than a week. This came after the US Federal Reserve raised its key rate range by 50 bps to 0,75-1% per annum.

According to the RSI indicator, bitcoin has approached the oversold zone, but there is still a possibility of further declines to $29 000. This is one of the likely scenarios in which the crypto market plunges into a deeper correction. An alternative scenario is a rebound from support around $33 000 and recovery to $36-37 000 to the first important resistance level.

Bitcoin dropped below $30 000 today for the first time since July 2021. Support in the $29-30 000 range withstood sellers’ pressure. As of 10:00 Moscow time, bitcoin has already been bought back up to $32 500, but there is still a chance of it falling below $30 000.

On the weekly timeframe, the formation of a falling wedge pattern can be seen. A breakout from the wedge may take place either upward or downward. On a downward breakout and fixation below $30 000, a plunge into that very crypto winter will happen.

Also worth considering is the fact that the fear and greed index of the crypto market has reached a low value (10, extreme fear). The last time the indicator was at this level was in early 2022.
