Market Moves by Omkar Godbole Bitcoin Outflow From Exchanges Suggests Confidence Crypto Rout Is Over With blockchain data showing that bearish market sentiment is weakening, oversold bitcoin (BTC) may succeed in establishing a base below $40,000. The seven-day average of net bitcoin inflows to exchanges turned negative for the first time since April 22, data provided by Glassnode show.That means coins are leaving exchanges after a gap of four weeks, a sign of investors are starting to take direct custody of their holdings, possibly anticipating a price increase. The fewer coins available for sale on exchanges, the better the chance of the market going up. Investors typically transfer coins to exchanges when they want to sell their holdings, so consistent net inflows represent a bearish mood, with outflows signalling bullish sentiment. Bitcoin exchange flows (Source: Glassnode) The seven-day average of net flows turned positive on April 22, and rose to a 14-month high of 10,628 BTC on May 17, a sign some holders may have been panicking.The bitcoin sell-off gathered pace, with prices dropping to lows near $30,000 on May 17. The decline marked a slump of more than 50% from the record-high $64,801 reached on April 1. The panic looks to have subsided this week, with the balance held on exchanges dropping by 7,597 BTC to 2.53 million. Further outflows from exchanges may be needed to restore battered market confidence and put the cryptocurrency back on a bullish path. Consistent outflows accompanied bitcoin's 13-month surge from $5,000 to over $60,000, with the balance held in exchange wallets falling by more than 615,000 BTC from March 2020 to April 2021.

Technician's Take by Damanick Dantes Bitcoin Consolidates Around Short-Term Support; Faces Resistance Near $42K Bitcoin (BTC) has traded sideways over the past week as the correction phase stabilizes. The cryptocurrency held short-term support at $36,000 and was trading around $39,000 at the time of writing. Resistance is seen at the upper bound of the week-long range around $42,000. Hourly bitcoin chart shows short-term support and resistance levels (Source: TradingView) Bitcoin is holding above the 100-period moving average on the hourly chart which suggests the short-term trend is improving.Immediate resistance is seen at $40,000 where buyers failed to sustain upside over the past few days. $42,000 is the next level of resistance which is around the 200-day moving average. Bitcoin is down about 3% over the past seven days as the price recovery from $30,000 stalls. Volatility has drifted lower since March 23, which is typical during price consolidation. Considering the sharp correction this month, lower volatility could encourage buyers to return at support levels.
