Saturday, November 1, started out at $339, down 1.45% from the opening price of the previous day.

The decline ended at that point though, and the price began a modest climb at 5 PM. This small climb continued for the rest of the day, and November 1 closed at $326 — a 3.83% decrease from the day’s opening price.

Where Will the Bitcoin Price go from Here?

Last week, our forecast maintained that, ceteris paribus (all things remaining equal), the Bitcoin price would continue falling until it found a resting place — where it would await the next change in valuations. Our forecast was accurate, although it appears as if the price has not yet found that resting place nor has the market changed its negative valuation of Bitcoin.

Now, let us make our forecast of the Bitcoin price activity for the coming week. Considering the decidedly bearish activity of this week, with the price falling by a total of 6.05%, we will say that, ceteris paribus, the Bitcoin price will continue falling and will likely go below $320. The only things that would change the current trajectory would be a swift change in market valuations — which could either level the price out or send it upwards — or another wall being put up by a “Whale.”
