Bitcoin Price Starts Fresh Decrease


Bitcoin price recovered above the $37,000 resistance zone. BTC even climbed above the $38,000 resistance zone and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

However, the price failed to clear the $38,800 resistance zone. A high was formed near $38,719 and the price started a fresh decline. There was a move below the $38,000 support level. The bears pushed the price below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $35,561 swing low to $38,719 high.

Besides, there was a break below a key bullish trend line with support near $37,650 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. The pair traded below $37,200 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

It is now testing the $36,800 support zone. The stated level is near the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $35,561 swing low to $38,719 high. On the upside, an initial resistance is near the $37,400 level and the 100 hourly SMA.

The first major resistance is near the $38,000 zone. The main resistance is still near the $38,800 zone. An upside break above the $38,800 resistance could start a steady upward move. The next key resistance is near the $40,000 level, above which the bulls might gain strength.

More Losses in BTC?


If bitcoin fails to start a fresh increase above $38,000, it could continue to move down. An immediate support on the downside is near the $36,000 zone.

The first major support is seen near the $35,500 zone. A downside break below the $35,500 support zone may perhaps push the price towards the $34,000 support zone.
