News
Yesterday, BTC rebounded above $11,800 support to break the $12,000 overhead resistance. The recent rebound was not sufficient to break the resistance as price retraced after hitting the high of $12,060.
Buyers’ failure to sustain the upside momentum will attract bearish consequences. The king coin has resumed a downward move. When BTC falls there are crucial support levels where price finds support. The king coin has fallen above $11,700 at the time of writing.
The coin will resume upside momentum if the current support holds. Otherwise, the selling pressure will extend to the crucial support levels of $11,600, $11,400, and $11,200. The crypto will find support above one of these support levels to resume a fresh uptrend. Nonetheless, if the bears break below $11,200 support, BTC is likely to decline to $11,000 or $10,400. This will portend negatively for the coin. In the meantime, the coin has fallen but it is hovering above $11,700 support.
