Key Points

  • Bitcoin price is struggling to break the $8,300 resistance area against the US Dollar.
  • Yesterday’s highlighted important bearish trend line is intact with resistance at $8,280 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair has to break the $8,280 and $8,300 resistance levels to climb further higher.

Bitcoin price is placed nicely above the $7,850 support against the US Dollar. BTC/USD is likely to surge higher once buyers succeed in clearing the $8,300 hurdle.

Bitcoin Price Analysis

Yesterday, we discussed an important barrier near $8,300 in bitcoin price against the US Dollar. The BTC/USD pair made another attempt to break the stated $8,300 resistance, but it failed. As a result, there was a bearish reaction and the price dipped below the $8,000 level. However, the $7,800-7,850 support area acted as a strong hurdle for sellers and prevented more declines.

A low was formed at $7,854 and the price bounced back. It broke the 50% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $8,373 high to $7,854 low. However, the price struggled to settle above the $8,200 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. Moreover, the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $8,373 high to $7,854 low also prevented gains. At the moment, the price is consolidating near the $8,100 level and the 100 hourly SMA. On the upside, yesterday’s highlighted important bearish trend line is intact with resistance at $8,280 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair.
