Bitcoin Faces Key Resistance Amid Asia Weakness
- Price Volatility Analysis: Bitcoin failed to regain the $60,000 level on Friday, marking its first daily close below this threshold since September 2024, indicating a decline in liquidity and risk appetite amid sensitivity to macroeconomic data.
- Impact of Asian Markets: Asian equity markets showed renewed weakness, with South Korea's circuit-breaker mechanism triggered after an approximately 8% decline, intensifying investor concerns over risk assets and potentially further influencing Bitcoin's price trajectory.
- Inflation Expectations and Market Correlation: Analysts noted that the recent spike in the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index is closely tied to Bitcoin's price drop, suggesting that inflation expectations may have a more significant impact on risk asset pricing, especially with the Fed's inflation forecast raised to 3.6%.
- Technical Indicator Focus: The 200-week simple moving average (SMA), currently around $62,243, is viewed as a critical technical level, with market participants closely monitoring whether Bitcoin can stabilize above this level, which will determine future trading strategies and risk management.
