Bitcoin Price Bounce Back: Could the Recovery Lose Momentum?

As an analyst with over a decade of experience in the financial markets, I have seen my fair share of market volatility and trends. Bitcoin’s recent recovery wave is a classic example of how the cryptocurrency market can be unpredictable yet fascinating.


Bitcoin‘s price has rebounded following its fall beneath $50,000. Currently, Bitcoin has surpassed $55,000, but it encounters several obstacles around the $58,000 level.

    Bitcoin started a recovery wave above the $52,500 and $55,000 levels.

Bitcoin Price Starts Recovery Wave

The cost of Bitcoin continued to drop below the $52,500 barrier, with prices dipping as low as $49,111. It even fell beneath the $51,100 and $50,000 thresholds. However, Bitcoin’s price has now started to rebound slightly.

The price surpassed $52,500, reached the halfway point (50%) of its recent downward slide from the peak of $61,040 to the low of $49,111, and also broke a bearish trend line offering resistance at $55,100 on an hourly BTC/USD chart.

Currently, Bitcoin’s price remains under $58,000 and slightly below its 100-hour Simple Moving Average. If it rises, it may encounter resistance around the $56,500 mark. Notably, this price point is close to the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the decline from the peak of $61,040 to the trough of $49,111.

Initially, a significant hurdle lies around the $58,250 mark. If we surpass this barrier at $58,250, it may propel the price upwards in the approaching periods. Potentially, the next major obstacle could be found at $58,800.

Overcoming the upcoming challenge requires breaking through the $60,000 barrier. Should we manage to surpass this resistance level, it may trigger a series of optimistic price increases, potentially pushing the value up to $62,000 and testing yet another potential resistance.

Another Decline In BTC?

Should Bitcoin not manage to surge beyond the $58,000 barrier, there’s a chance it might initiate another drop. In such a scenario, potential support for Bitcoin could be found around the $55,000 mark.

In simpler terms, initially, a significant level of support for the price is at $53,500. Currently, the next potential support is around $52,000. If the price continues to drop, it may head towards the $50,000 support area in the near future.
