  • There was a strong decline in bitcoin price below the $5,280 support level against the US Dollar.
  • The price even spiked below the $5,000 support level and it is currently consolidating above $5,100.
  • There is a major bullish trend line in place with support at $5,080 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair could bounce back as long as there is no weekly close below the $5,000 support level.

Bitcoin price started consolidating losses after a strong decline against the US Dollar. BTC is likely to recover above $5,200 and $5,280 in the near term unless the $5,000 gives way.

Bitcoin Price Weekly Analysis (BTC)

This past week, there was a significant rejection in bitcoin price near the $5,660 level against the US Dollar. The BTC/USD pair started a strong downward move below $5,400 after tether’s drama. The price tumbled below the key $5,280 and $5,200 support levels. There was even a spike below $5,000, plus a close below the 100 simple moving average (4-hours). A swing low was formed near the $4,910 level and recently the price recovered above $5,000 and $5,050.

At the moment, the price is testing the 50% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $5,510 swing high to $4,910 swing low. However, the $5,220 area and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours) are acting as hurdles. Above $5,220, there is a major resistance near $5,280 and a connecting bearish trend line. The 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last drop from the $5,510 swing high to $4,910 swing low is also near the $5,280 level. A successful close above the $5,280 level might trigger a decent recovery in the near term.

On the downside, there is a major bullish trend line in place with support at $5,080 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC/USD pair. The trend line support near $5,080 is very important, below which the price could test $5,000. If there is a daily close below $5,000, the price is likely to move further into a bearish zone. In the mentioned case, the price will most likely test $4,800 or $4,750.
