8+ min ago (581+ words) Bitcoin price was stabilizing on Monday morning after the sudden decline from key resistance levels. Analysts cautioned that the asset could experience further pullbacks in case buyers failed to protect the support of $85,000. Technical indicators reveal declining momentum across the high timeframe. Also, several charts highlight the need for a retest of the zone around the mid-$80K level before any recovery action.

Failure to break above it would expose Bitcoin price to deeper declines toward the $82,000$83,000 levels....
