One of the more damning indicators is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/topic\/death-cross\">death cross<\/a>. A phenomenon that describes when a shorter-running moving average slips beneath a longer-running average \u2014 typically the 50-day moving average falling below the 200 DMA \u2014 the death cross symbolizes a deceleration of momentum.

At time of writing on Friday, Coinbase\u2019s 50 DMA lands at $239.54, while the 200 DMA sits at $232.26 \u2014 a gap of only 3.13%. Today&#8217;s big drop, contributing to a five-day loss of roughly 12%, has accelerated the likelihood of the dreaded signal flashing.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, technical analysts have warned certain cryptos themselves are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/markets\/cryptocurrency\/25\/03\/44523170\/bitcoin-ethereum-xrp-dogecoin-trade-sideways-as-trader-warns-of-potential-btc-death-cross\">at risk of printing the death cross<\/a>.
