Bitcoin and the rest of the cryptocurrency market have been caught within the throes of a sideways trading bout throughout the past few days and weeks, with buyers and sellers unable to control its mid-term trend. Last week, the cryptocurrency was able to rally as high as $14,100, but the selling pressure here was rather intense and instantly forced it back below $13,800. Despite closing its monthly candle above this level, it has been facing some intense inflows of selling pressure throughout the past few hours. One analyst believes that this will mark the start of a decline that ultimately sends it reeling as low as $11,500. Bitcoin Struggles to Gain Momentum as Sellers Force It LowerAt the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading down over 3% at its current price of $13,350. This marks a notable decline from its weekly highs of $14,100 and its daily highs of $13,900. Where the crypto trends in the near-term will depend on how it responds to the support just below where it is currently trading at. A break below the lower-$13,000 region could spark a selling frenzy that causes its $14,100 highs to mark a mid-term top. Trader Claims Move to $11,500 is ImminentOne trader is now offering a grim outlook for the crypto, noting that a move to $11,500 may come about in the near-term before Bitcoin can gain any long-term support that sends it higher.
