The moving average lines have hindered the upside moves

Bitcoin (BTC) price has been trading above the $94,000 support but below the moving average lines since February 3.

Bitcoin price long-term forecast: bearish

The moving average lines have hindered the upside moves. The price has not been able to sustain above the moving average lines by buyers. 

The cryptocurrency would reach its high of $104,000 if the moving average lines are broken. The negative trend has stalled above the $94,000 support on the downside. The bears have failed to push the price to $90,000.

On the downside, the selling pressure ends at lower price points. The Bitcoin price is currently at $96,951.

Analysis of the Bitcoin price indicators

Bitcoin is consolidating above the $94,000 support, but the 50-day SMA is rejecting the uptrend. There is a possibility that the 21-day SMA will fall below the 50-day SMA. 

Consequently, BTC will experience renewed selling pressure. Doji candlesticks have appeared on the 4-hour chart as Bitcoin consolidates.
