Findings

Opinion

In our opinion, Bitcoin can retest 5500-6000$ area in next few hours, and it can also show positive price momentum on weekends. Bulls needs to close the current week above 200MA to save price from further losses. If Bicoin fails to close current week above 5500$, than there is more than good chances for price drop below 3000$ in coming days.
