The 50-week simple moving average (50W SMA), now near $102,000, has served as a long-term support line in multiple past cycles. Its failure has often led to extended drawdowns.<\/p>\n<p>As of press time, the asset was priced at $103,000, showing a modest 1% gain over the last 24 hours. Over the past week, it has declined 7%, with daily trading volume near $61.7 billion.<\/p>\n<h2>50W SMA and Historical Breakdown Patterns<\/h2>\n<p>Market history shows that each time Bitcoin lost the 50W SMA, a sharp correction followed. Analyst Ali Martinez <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ali_charts\/status\/1986168894063624238\">pointed<\/a> to several examples where this support failed: a 50% drop in 2011, 67% in 2014, 60% in 2018, and 66% in late 2021. The 2020 crash during the COVID outbreak also saw a 55% decline after the same breakdown.<\/p>\n<p>Martinez stated,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cBitcoin has seen an average 60% drop each time it has lost the 50W SMA as support.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Based on that pattern, a confirmed break below $102,000 could project a potential move toward $40,000. This level is now being viewed as a make-or-break area for Bitcoin\u2019s longer-term structure.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1418956\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1418956\" style=\"width: 1199px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj.jpeg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1418956\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj.jpeg\" alt=\"Bitcoin (BTC) price chart\" width=\"1199\" height=\"832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj.jpeg 1199w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-300x208.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-1024x711.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-768x533.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-90x62.jpeg 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-130x90.jpeg 130w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-1000x694.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-900x625.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-800x555.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-700x486.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-600x416.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-500x347.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-400x278.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-200x139.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/G4-8uz9WMAAQ4Qj-100x69.jpeg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1199px) 100vw, 1199px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1418956\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Ali Matinez\/X<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Key Short-Term Levels and Price Reaction<\/h2>\n<p>Analyst Lennaert Snyder also <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/LennaertSnyder\/status\/1986347850792312879\">marked<\/a> $102,000 as a short-term support level to monitor.

Since October 10, open interest has declined by over $10 billion, led by Binance, which saw a $4 billion decrease. Bybit and Gate.io followed with drops of $3 billion and $2 billion, respectively.
