Carnage can be spotted on the cryptocurrency market today. Bitcoin slumping for the second day in a row and in spite of recovering part of losses, still trades around 12% lower today. Bitcoin is trading over 20% off a recent all-time high. A correction from the beginning of January saw price drop as much as 30%. A key level to watch can be found at $45,000, where the lower limit of the Overbalance structure can be found. Breaking below this level may herald a drop towards the previous local high in the $41,500 area.
