The above chart shows the bearish descending scallop pattern. However, this pattern is followed by a downtrend. It is found that the BTC price dropped over 100% from an all-time high of $64,863.10 to $32k within the past three months.

Notably, the recent slide is a reversal from the dramatic rise that began in the second half of last year. Even more, the price of bitcoin is still considered to be over 200% since September, the dramatic bull rally sparked in part by hedge fund managers, banks, and other firms that appear to embrace cryptocurrency.
