The cryptocurrency market is navigating a sea of red after Bitcoin lost almost 4 percent in a day, hovering above the $5,000 mark. As expected, the top altcoins tailed the bearish trend that was set by the number one cryptocurrency with Litecoin dipping almost 9 percent.

An expected correction  

After two weeks of positivity, Bitcoin appeared in extremely overbought territory. Now, it is experiencing an expected correction that sent its price back to the $5,000 level. That comes just a day after BTC reached $5,350 on Apr. 10, but the inevitable selling pressure puts the market bears back in charge.

Yet, the fact that Bitcoin appeared in such a predicament is hardly an indicator of another prolonging bearish downtrend. Economist Alex Krüger claims that we shouldn’t expect a pullback to $4000. He would be ‘surprised’ to see the BTC price dropping below the $4,400 level.
