Bitcoin (BTC) In Trouble – South Korea Rattles The Crypto Market

Earlier this morning, The former president of South Korea expressed great concern in the bill that the justice ministry is making to esentially ban cryptocurrency trading. The news hit the crypto coins by storm, and here’s what we can expect now as a result.

BTC/USD – Horizontal Support Breakout

On the 4 hour chart, the BTC is currently wavering just above the solid support level of $12,681. We can see that the Bitcoin has already tested this support level twice before, making it much less likely that it will be able to break through it now.

BTC/USD – 240 – Mins Chart

The descending triangle pattern, which was earlier broken upward, seems to be providing support to the BTC at $12,680. The 50- periods EMA, however,  is extending resistance at $14.985.
