The pattern is called a bear flag, and a breakdown could send the price of the largest cryptocurrency to as low as $54,000 initially, according to pseudonymous trader Doctor Profit, who called BTC's bull-market peak at $126,000 and the subsequent selloff.
"Bitcoin is now forming a massive bearish flag on the daily timeframe," the trader wrote on X. "My target is a dump to 54-56k region first before we move sideways once again and afterwards another leg down and the bottom is close in the region between 40-50k in my opinion."
