Bulls could not even fix above the $23,500 mark, which means that there are more chances to see a further decline rather than a bounceback. Thus, the selling volume has increased, confirming bears' power. In this case, there is a possibility to expect the test of the $23,000 mark by the end of the week.

On the weekly time frame, Bitcoin (BTC) has made a false breakout of the $25,000 mark against the low volume. The midterm trend might change to bearish only if the candle closes below the vital support level at $22,400.

Bitcoin is trading at $23,435 at press time.
