Early in the European session, Bitcoin is trading around 42,654, below the 200 EMA, and below the 21 SMA. On the H4 chart, we can see that Bitcoin is trading within a downtrend channel formed from January 8th. In the next few hours, it could resume its bearish cycle if it consolidates below 43,200.

In case Bitcoin manages to reach the top of the downtrend channel around $45,000 or around 4/8 Murray and if it fails to break, it could be seen as a signal to sell with targets at 42,200, 41,500, and 40,625.

In case Bitcoin consolidates above 43,800 or 44,000 on the H4 chart, it could resume its bullish cycle and we could expect it to reach the psychological level of $45,000. Eventually, it could reach 6/8 of Murray at 46,875.

Given that Bitcoin is under strong bearish pressure, we expect it to continue to fall in the next few hours and reach the low of January 12 around 41,447. Finally, the price could tumble to around 2/8 of Murray at 40,625.

On January 14, the eagle indicator reached the oversold zone, which could favor the recovery of Bitcoin. If the token consolidates above 41,500, we could expect a technical rebound which could give BTC bullish strength and an opportunity to buy. The key could be to buy above 3/8 Murray or above 41,500.
