Bitcoin Long Term Price Forecast: Fluctuation
The largest cryptocurrency has been trading below its moving averages but above the $55,000 support for the past two weeks. Buyers have tried to hold the price above the moving average lines three times.
However, the BTC price rose above the moving averages on August 21 but was stopped by the 50-day SMA. In other words, Bitcoin is currently trading between the moving average lines.

On the contrary, Bitcoin will fall if the 21-day SMA or $59,000 support is broken.
The downward momentum is expected to continue to $55,000. If the current support level is broken, the downtrend will continue to the low of $49,000.
