- BTC/USD managed to settle above $8,000, but the recovery is limited.
- Bears may regain control in the short-run.
BTC/USD hovers marginally above $8,000 after a short-lived dip to $7,990 on Tuesday. A sustainable move below this psychological barrier will trigger a sharp sell-off and take the price to $7,800-$7,7000 area. At the time of writing, BTC/USD is changing hands at $8,060, mostly unchanged both on a day-to-day basis and since the beginning of Tuesday.
