Watch on YouTube →
Overview
Ron Walker predicts Bitcoin will test new lows, breaking the $60,000 support level, despite some bullish signals and a potential rally to the $97,900-$110,000 range. Walker bases this on technical analysis, including 200-week moving averages, Fibonacci retracements, RSI, MACD, and trend lines, while also considering the impact of geopolitical events like the US strikes on Iran and potential Fed rate cuts.
Key takeaways
- Ron Walker predicts Bitcoin will break the $60,000 support level, potentially reaching the mid to high $40,000 range, before a significant rally.
- Walker uses technical indicators like the 200-week moving average, Fibonacci retracements, RSI, and MACD to identify potential bottoming targets and resistance levels.
- Geopolitical events, such as US strikes on Iran, are expected to contribute to market volatility and potentially drive Bitcoin lower.
- Walker anticipates the Fed may implement emergency rate cuts, which could trigger a substantial rally in Bitcoin, but historically, rallies in bear markets are limited to the 50% retracement level.
- The weekly charts are bearish, confirming a bear market, and Walker sees no evidence of a bottom yet, despite some short-term bullish signals.
- Walker expects Bitcoin to eventually drop 80-90% from its peak, potentially reaching $12,000-$25,000, due to factors like a potential stock market crash and a banking crisis.
