As of writing, it hangs over a historical demand zone, where it traded at $51928 with an intraday dip of 11% on the daily chart. Breaking this would lead to $47361 and $43217, respectively. 
Moreover, a look at the monthly chart, BTC price had an ascending wedge in play. Where the price has been deflected from the upper border of the channel, causing the plunge. 
In the past, it was witnessed that the channels’ middle line has shown previous comebacks in price, and recently, it reached near this dynamic trendline. 
Based on potential buyers’ interest, this trendline could hold and bounce back. But if the seller dominance increases, then deterioration would lead to a severe crash. 
Over the daily chart, the indicators are all red and displaying further bearishness, as 50-day and 200-day EMAs have been pierced down. The MACD showed a bearish cross with a broadening histogram downwards at 1542.02.

However, the loss of strength in price dip has been observed by RSI, as it has entered extremely oversold territory below 30 at 23.61. Since RSI has been oversold, there happens to be a good probability for BTC to rise. 
Therefore, if BTC price bounces back, then the hurdle would lie at $53614, $56393, and $60278, respectively.
