BTC/USD False Breakdown!

BTC/USD rebounded by it has found strong resistance at the weekly S1 (31,807) and now it pressures the 30,261 static support. As you can see, the price registered only false breakdowns below this level and through the lower median line (LML) of the descending pitchfork.

As long as it stays above the lower median line (LML), BTC/USD could still rebound. 28,800 is seen as critical support. Technically, after its massive drop, a rebound is in the cards, but don't forget that the bearish pressure remains high as long as it stays under the 32,967 key level.
