Bitcoin (BTC) has been trading sideways at the price of $11.750. South Korean banks have been providing virtual account services to cryptocurrency exchanges and earning commissions from them. According to data obtained by the country's Financial Supervisory Service, banks made 36 times more in commission income from crypto exchanges last year than the previous year. Technical picture looks neutral.

Trading recommendations:

According to the 30M time - frame, I found a potential bearish pennant pattern in creation, which is a sign that market is in the consolidation phase and that resistance near the price of $12.615 might be on the test. My advice is to watch for potential selling opportunities near the resistance and then to watch for a potential bearish breakout of the pennant support to confirm a further downward continuation.
