Press Releases Crypto News DailyHodl Analyst Nicholas Merten Predicts Bitcoin (BTC) Will Be Hit Hard by Resistance and Make Move to the Downside

A widely followed crypto analyst is predicting that Bitcoin (BTC) will be hit hard by selling pressure and make a significant leg downward.

In a new strategy session, crypto trader Nicholas Merten, the host of DataDash, tells his 511,000 YouTube subscribers that the king crypto is setting up for a move to the downside.

According to Merten, the top crypto asset by market cap will have trouble breaking through its channel resistance between $30,000 and $33,000.

The analyst goes on to say that BTC bulls have a case to be made if Bitcoin can bust through the resistance zone. However, Merten notes that the only way he envisions BTC completing such a feat is if a spot market BTC exchange-traded fund (ETF) is approved.

“The bulls have an argument here if we can get above $33,000…

I think the question remains whether or not we’re going to be able to get above this channel of resistance and start to utilize [it] as support to propel higher in the case of a Bitcoin ETF. And I got to be honest with you guys – as I’m looking across the ratios here, the thing that’s going to be making this happen is if we do get an ETF.

I think that’s the only shot, all the other narratives – let’s just be candid about [it] – the other narratives have failed for Bitcoin in the near term. Just being realistic about it…
