Bitcoin is turning negative again. And the technicals aren’t looking too good either going into 2019.

The largest cryptocurrency slumped as much as 5.9 percent to $3,668.09 on Wednesday, approaching the more than one-year low of $3,522.58 reached on Nov. 26. After a few days of relative stability, volatility has increased again in the wake of November’s plunge, which was the biggest monthly drop in over seven years.
