Bitcoin bottom has appeared?

Rekt Capital analyst says Bitcoin's current correction is the longest and deepest retracement in the current cycle:

'Whenever Bitcoin gets close to a 20% drop, it's usually a great buying opportunity before the price reverses to the upside. So if the price is falling deeper than 20%, the buying opportunity is even better, because the deeper the price falls, the closer the bottom is.'

According to Jag Kooner, head of derivatives at Bitfinex, although a move lower seems unlikely, BTC prices could consolidate over the next two months due to the challenging macroeconomic environment.

On the weekly chart, the $52,000 mark serves as the 'most important level' to watch, as it is the high timeframe support-resistance level.

Trader Marco Johanning emphasized that a weekly close above the $52,000 mark would indicate room for further upside.
