Bitcoin’s sell-off triggered by corrections across the broader crypto market and the growing uncertainty over the US elections has cast doubt over whether BTC’s “Uptober” gains will be undone.
This has left market participants wondering how low the Bitcoin price may go if the $69,000-$70,000 support range is lost.
Analysts set sub-$65,000 target for Bitcoin price
Bitcoin’s latest downtrend has led market analysts to believe that the price of the pioneer cryptocurrency might retest areas around $65,000 before resuming the uptrend into price discovery.
“Expect Bitcoin volatility in the coming days!” said Bitcoin analyst AlphaBTC in an Oct. 31 post on X.
The upcoming 2024 US elections and the looming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting scheduled for Nov. 6 and Nov. 7 could result in “big swings,” the analyst added.
Traders would have to wait until after the outcome of the elections and the FOMC decision on rate cuts is made to get clarity on the direction the market could take, according to AlphaBTC
