Bitcoin’s Gloomy Trajectory

Bitcoin fell below the $69,000 price level at the start of November, concluding “Uptober.” Traders secured profits as the market declined, and millions were liquidated. The leading digital asset is currently trading at $69,567.71, a critical support level, and appears poised to retest the resistance above $70,000.

CoinMarketCap data indicates Bitcoin gained 3.86% over the past week and a considerable 13.71% in the last 30 days. Moreover, the market leader is up 96.77% since November 2023 and is trading at a 5.8% discount from its all-time high of $73,750.
