Crypto markets have seen two significant slumps earlier this week when Bitcoin dipped below $6,000 on June 24 and June 29, the latter being the expiration day of CME Group’s Bitcoin futures.
On June 28, Robert Sluymer of Fundstrat Global Advisors predicted that Bitcoin must rally through the $6,300-6,400 resistance level to reverse the existing downtrend.
“...We have a critical stop level at the $5,800-6000… with a resistance level of $6,300-6400. If it can rally through that, I think there’s a chance Bitcoin could start to turn.”
