Second option playing out. Any test of 23500 as resistance is a good sell opportunity.
Consolidation below 22500 (clean break + use the level as resistance) would be very bearish = 21k or lower

Capo predicted that $23,500 would strongly resist pushing Bitcoin towards the $20,000 key area.
Earlier in March, Capo predicted that the apex crypto would fall under $23,000. Bitcoin ended up hitting a 2022 low of under $18,000 in June.
