#crypto #bitcoin
More importantly, it seems like the $8,880 bearish target (as discussed in the weekly forecast) is now in sight. In the short term, there could be an upside correction above $10,200. The price is currently trading near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent drop from the $11,466 high to $9,785 low. However, there are many resistance levels on the upside near the $10,500 and $10,600 levels.
Moreover, there is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $10,650 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent drop from the $11,466 high to $9,785 low is just below the trend line. The main resistance is near the $10,800 level (the previous support area). To start a strong recovery, the price must settle above $10,800 level.
On the downside, an immediate support is near the $10,000 level, below which the price may retest the $9,780 level in the near term. If there are more losses, the price may continue to slide towards $9,500 and $9,200.
Looking at the chart, bitcoin price is clearly in a downtrend from the $13,200 yearly swing high. If the bears remain in action, it seems like the $8,880 bearish target (as discussed in the weekly forecast) could be test in the coming days.
Technical indicators:
Hourly MACD – The MACD is likely to move back in the bullish zone.
