In an analysis that he shared with CriptoNoticias, this scholar of financial markets explains that, if this bearish figure with the shoulder-head-shoulder pattern continues, the price of bitcoin would go “much lower, possibly in two stops: first to the USD 22,000 and then to USD 20,000 ».
Jacobo Maximiliano complements this technical analysis with fundamental analysis data. It says the following: “If by technical analysis this is the most likely scenario, by fundamental analysis, the prospects are not very rosy, since the SEC has sued Coinbase and Binance, two of the most important players in the cryptocurrency market.”
A gap shows bearish bias for the bitcoin price
Jacobo Maximiliano mentions that there is gap (or gap) not closed in the area of USD 20,000. The gaps are common phenomena in financial markets and represent an empty space between the prices of two consecutive trading periods.

If bitcoin exceeds USD 30,000, the analysis would be nullified
Although the analyst mentions what he considers the most likely scenario, he admits the possibility that his forecast may not come to pass. According to him, price estimate would be overturned if bitcoin breaks hard through $30,000. In this way, the “figure of return would be annulled.”
A reversal pattern (also known as a reversal or reversal pattern) is, according to his explanation, “a chart pattern that suggests a change in direction in the current price trend of a financial asset.”
If BTC were to break above $30,000, the Bitget analyst explains, It could go towards USD 36,000. The reason, he says, is that there is a gap futures opened at that price “with a second bullish phase up to USD 42,000”.
