BTC/USD: Has the Bull Run Come to an End?

From a technical perspective, the short-term correction is ongoing due to the absence of buyers to push the rate higher. There is also low liquidity support above $9,700, which confirms the ongoing decline. The nearest support zone is between $9,400 and $9,450.

Looking at the 4H time frame, the bearish sentiment is even more powerful. Bitcoin (BTC) is about to finish forming a Head and Shoulders pattern. That is a reversal figure, suggesting a change in trend. If the bears continues to push the price downwards, then the first stop is at the $9,300 mark. This might be attained next week.

The current candle is going to close with a long wick on the weekly chart, which is a bearish signal. Overall, BTC might confirm our previous prediction that the bullish trend, which started since mid-March, is coming to an end. Respectively, the bears are not targeting the vital support at the $9,000 mark. If the first days of the week are bearish, then the $9,000 mark will be reached next week.

At press time, Bitcoin was trading at $9,487.
