On 23 December, it was reported that the price of Bitcoin has continued to fall, dropping below the $94,000 mark. Although it reached a high of $99,500 over the weekend, it has since come under selling pressure and has retreated 15 percent from last week's record high. A number of trading analysts are cautious about the near-term trend. According to analyst Bitcoindata21, the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) support to resistance is underperforming, and it is expected that Bitcoin may pull back to $92,000, with the $85,000-$86,000 range becoming a ‘bottoming area’ for the bulls. According to CrypNuevo, the market is unlikely to see a V-shaped reversal and may retest the psychological support level of $90,000. Trader Jelle said that the current bitcoin price trend is similar to the end of 2023, and we can not rule out the possibility of falling below $ 90,000 this week, but we expect to return to the uptrend in 2025. From a macro perspective, market sentiment is cautious after the Federal Reserve released a hawkish policy statement last week, and the market expects only an 8.6 per cent probability of a rate cut at the next FOMC meeting, according to CME Group data.
