More Bitcoin Outflow from Exchanges
Meanwhile, there are hints of strength reading from on-chain activities despite strong selling pressure. For instance, over 96k BTC were moved from centralized cryptocurrency exchanges to non-custodial wallets in March 2022, according to trackers. Typically, whenever coins are transferred from a ramp, it indicates confidence and expectation of price expansions in the days ahead—a net positive for BTC prices. The Bitcoin price concluded March strongly, closing above a critical resistance level—retesting $48.5k before pulling back to spot level.

Bitcoin Price Analysis
The BTC price is under pressure at spot rates, dropping three percent in the previous trading week. At spot rates, the coin is underperforming, trailing the USDT as sellers press harder.
Technically, following the high-volume bear candlestick of April 6, bears are in control from an effort-versus-results perspective.
Notably, the drawdown of April 6 follows an extended distribution above $44.5k, following sharp gains at the tail-end of March 2022. Since bulls could revert losses of April 6, every pullback towards $44.5k—in a retest—and the 20-day moving average could be an opportunity to offload with targets at $42.5k and later $40k—a psychological round number.
On the reverse side, sharp gains above $44.5k with rising trading volumes cancel the downtrend, placing back bulls in contention.
