This weekend has been quite eventful for Bitcoin. After reaching a new all time high of $1800, the price dipped over $200 to a low of $1600. However, the market displayedstrong support at that level and is currently showing signs of recovery. <\/p>\n
As SECs second decision date approached by May 15th, the market is showing clear signs of uncertainty. Both the bears and the bulls are pulling the strings in their directions. One concerning sign is the lack of volume during the recovery. <\/p>\n
The market RSI has also decreased, signalling a lack of fuel for further momentum. If a few big players decide to exit their positions the market may tumble down to the $1600 support levels once again. <\/p>\n
According to the SEC, all documents regarding the appealed bitcoin ETF application must be submitted by May 15th.This does not necessarily mean that the decision will come right away, but there is no reason it shouldnt come soon after. <\/p>\n
Two months ago, the SEC released their decision around 5PM, after the stock market closed. Usually the agency release statements after hours,to make sure the stock market is closed for the day and cannot be manipulated, but since there are no Bitcoin stocks there is no reason why they wouldnt release a statement earlier. Make sure to vote if you think the Bitcoin Petition for Review will be approved: <\/p>\n
