Trader Notes: With Bitcoin prices dropping for the third consecutive day of the week, CryptoQuant Founder and CEO Ki Young Ju noted that Bitcoin will stay in a bull cycle as long as capital flows in.
Another crypto trader, Rekt Capital, highlighted that Bitcoin has dropped to the lower end of its $91,000-$101,165 range.
To prevent further decline and extend the current corrective phase, it needs to maintain support at the $91,000 range low.

He is watching a triangle/pennant pattern to identify a potential breakout from the current consolidation.
While the outlook for Q1 remains generally positive, the beginning of the year is often choppy.
