Bitcoin2020/04/10 05:48 by Aayush Jindal
Bitcoin is still struggling to clear the $7,400 and $7,500 resistances against the US Dollar. BTC price must stay above $7,080 to rally above $7,500. If not, it could decline heavily below $7,000.
Bitcoin is trading in a contracting range below the $7,400 resistance against the US Dollar.
A crucial breakdown support is forming near the $7,080 level.
There is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $7,340 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
It seems like there is likely a double bottom pattern forming near the $7,100 area.
Bitcoin Nearing Key Breakout
In the past few sessions, bitcoin price traded in a broad range below the $7,400 and $7,500 resistance levels against the US Dollar. BTC price declined recently below the $7,200 level, but losses were limited.
The $7,080-$7,100 support area once again acted as a strong buy zone. More importantly, it seems like there is likely a double bottom pattern forming near the $7,100 area. A swing low is formed near $7,092 and the price climbed back above $7,300.
The recent high was near $7,360 and the price is currently correcting lower below $7,300. There was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the $7,092 low to $7,360 high.
Bitcoin is now testing the $7,220 area and the 100 hourly simple moving average. The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the $7,092 low to $7,360 high is also near the $7,226 level to act as a support.
On the upside, the bulls are facing a strong resistance near the $7,400 level. There is also a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $7,340 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair.
Bitcoin Price
If the highlighted double bottom pattern is valid, the price could break the trend line resistance and the $7,400 barrier. The main resistance is near the $7,500 level, above which the bulls are likely to aim $7,800 or $8,000.
Key Breakdown Support
On the downside, an initial support is near the $7,200 area. However, the key breakdown support for bitcoin is near the $7,080 level.
If the bulls fail to protect the $7,080 support area, there is a risk of a downside break. The next support is near the $7,000 level, below which the bears are likely to aim a test of the $6,700 level.
Technical indicators:
Hourly MACD – The MACD is struggling to gain traction in the bullish zone.
Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for BTC/USD is slowly moving below the 50 level.
Major Support Levels – $7,200 followed by $7,080.
