As an analyst with over two decades of experience in the financial markets, I have witnessed numerous bull and bear cycles. The recent decline in Bitcoin price from the $60,000 resistance zone is not uncommon, and it’s important to keep a cool head amidst market volatility.
The cost of Bitcoin began a new drop after hitting the $60,000 ceiling. At present, it’s trending downward and could potentially reach the $57,650 support level.

Bitcoin started a fresh decline from the $60,000 resistance zone.
The price is trading below $58,800 and the 100 hourly Simple moving average.
There was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $59,700 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
The pair might attempt a fresh increase if it stays above the $57,650 zone.
Bitcoin Price Dips Again
The value of Bitcoin found it challenging to consistently stay above the $60,000 barrier. A peak was reached around $60,200, after which the price began a downward trend. It dipped below the $58,500 support level as well.
In simpler terms, the price dropped under a significant level of support (23.6% Fibonacci retracement level) from the price drop between $56,117 and $60,210, and also broke through an important uptrend line that was previously holding at $59,700 on the hourly Bitcoin-US Dollar chart.
In simpler terms, they checked if the $58,000 area would hold as a support for Bitcoin price. Currently, Bitcoin’s price is below $59,000 and also lower than its 100-hour moving average. However, it’s still higher than the halfway point (50%) of the price movement from its lowest point at $56,117 to its highest point at $60,210.
Looking on the positive side, the price may encounter a barrier around $58,800. The primary hurdle is found near $59,500. If the price manages to break through the $59,500 barrier, it might continue moving upwards in the forthcoming sessions. Another significant resistance could be at $60,000 level.
If the price climbs above the $60,000 barrier, it may trigger further increases, potentially pushing the price to challenge the $61,500 resistance level.
More Losses In BTC?
If Bitcoin doesn’t manage to break through the $58,800 barrier, it might keep falling instead. The nearest potential support lies around the $58,000 mark.
Initially, a significant level of support can be found at approximately $57,650. Currently, the next potential support is close to the $57,000 region. If the price continues to fall, it may trend towards the $55,500 or even $55,000 support levels in the near future.
