As the weekend begins, crypto analyst Josh Rager is calling out sluggish volume for BTC and says he’s looking for Bitcoin to cross $12,500 before getting bullish.
According to Rager, a move below $11,138 would indicate a further drop is imminent.

Struggling to break above $11,760 with the decreasing volume setting up for more volatility (BBands squeezing on lower time frame)
Any move and close below $11,138 would be bearish on LTF and for me to get absolutely bullish, I want price above $12,500 pic.twitter.com/gTmBXRbGOW

Rager says the altcoin market, which has taken a beating amid rising Bitcoin dominance, has most likely not hit a bottom yet.
Altcoins likely haven't found their bottom
If this is a prolonged retrace for an overly extended Bitcoin price then many altcoins will continue to make new lows
This could present tremendous buying opportunities in the coming weeks/months for both alts & BTC for long term gains
