<a href="https://u.today/bitcoin-to-10-million-rich-dad-poor-dad-robert-kiyosaki-says-yes" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin (BTC)</a> started Thursday with a drop to $57,300. The cryptocurrency is currently trading at its lowest level in nearly three months, since the end of April.&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/3-reasons-why-3365-is-critical-for-ethereum-eth" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum</a>, the second most capitalized cryptocurrency, also started the day with a decline. But so did the rest of the market.
Over the past 24 hours, positions worth $319.98 million have been liquidated, and that is without taking into account two more days since the beginning of the week. According to the interim results of the week, we can now state the loss of $176 billion in capitalization for the entire crypto market. <img alt="&quot;&quot;" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="de71377b-7411-4224-93d6-5e5cc7dbb187" src="https://u.today/sites/default/files/inline-images/liq.png">Liquidation Heatmap by <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/LiquidationData" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinGlass</a>
It is natural that such price action has caused general fear, uncertainty and doubt among market participants. Peter Brandt, a legendary trader and frequent commentator on current events in the financial markets, volunteered to at least clarify the vision.

In his outlook, Brandt highlighted a significant bearish pattern: the bear flag. In a nutshell, this pattern indicates potential further declines for&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/satoshi-era-bitcoin-address-activated-as-btc-price-plunges" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a>. Brandt's chart, a critical component of his analysis, visually depicts this bearish trend and signals caution for investors. <img alt="&quot;&quot;" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="51042b83-a370-4e1b-8bbc-6798ede4056f" src="https://u.today/sites/default/files/inline-images/GRlccECWYAAKz_8.jpeg">Source: <a href="https://x.com/PeterLBrandt/status/1808578387130138858" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Peter Brandt</a>
"In the U.S., our attention always turns to flags on the 4th of July weekend," Brandt noted, adding a bit of humor to his technical analysis.
As you can see, the mood that Brandt is painting is not quite bullish, meaning that it is possible that buyers are in for a painful period on the market.
Either way, the perspective of the trading legend may help him prepare for further downside. Whether or not that is the case, we will know for sure only in hindsight.
