Bitcoin Price Holds $100K
The cost of a single Bitcoin began an encouraging increase that surpassed the $100,000 mark. Remarkably, Bitcoin managed to scale beyond the $102,500 and $103,800 thresholds.
Initially, a peak was reached at $106,246, and since then, the price has begun a decline. It dipped below both $104,000 and $103,500. Additionally, it broke through a significant bullish trend line with support at $104,650, as shown on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair, suggesting a possible shift in market sentiment from bullish to bearish.
As a crypto investor, I noticed that a low was set at approximately $99,538, and since then, the price has been on an upward trend. Interestingly, we’ve also seen a break above the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level from the high of $106,246 to the low of $99,538.
Currently, Bitcoin’s price is dipping below $103,800 and its 100-hour Simple Moving Average. If it tries to rise, there’s immediate resistance at roughly $102,000. The major resistance lies around the $103,000 mark or the 50% Fibonacci retracement point of the recent drop from the peak of $106,246 to the low of $99,538.
Breaking through the $103,000 barrier could push the price upwards, potentially reaching the next significant resistance at $104,650. If the price manages to close above this point, it may continue its ascent, possibly challenging the $106,250 resistance. Further progress might take the price near the $108,500 mark.
More Losses In BTC?
If Bitcoin doesn’t manage to break through the barrier at $103,000, it might trigger a drop in price instead. A potential safety net for Bitcoin could be around $100,500 in the immediate term. The more substantial support level lies closer to $100,000.
Approaching support can be found around the $98,800 area. If there are further losses, the price may head towards the nearby $96,500 support level in the short term.
