Leading derivatives and crypto trader, Cantering Clark reported heavy selling on order books a few hours before the price dropped. He tweeted,

Clark tweeted on the price action,
After rejection again there are 2 small bounces that fail at the equal highs within the range. After second failure buyers are toast, done stepping in at the low. Good opportunity to side with aggressive O.F. $BTC
