  • Bitcoin price rallied more than 5% to clear the $7,500 resistance against the US Dollar.
  • The price is now trading in a positive zone and it could rise further above $7,700.
  • There is a short term breakout pattern forming with resistance near $7,590 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • There could be a short term correction, but the price remains well bid above $7,500 and $7,460.

Bitcoin price is showing signs of a bullish continuation above $7,500 against the US Dollar. BTC is likely to continue higher and the bulls seem to be aiming $8,000 this week.

Bitcoin Price Analysis

After consolidating below the $7,200 resistance, bitcoin started a nice upward move against the US Dollar. BTC surpassed a few key hurdles near $7,300 and $7,400 to start a strong upward move.

Moreover, there was a close above the $7,500 resistance and the 100 hourly simple moving average. It opened the doors for more gains and the price rallied above $7,600. A new weekly high is formed near $7,652 and the price is currently consolidating gains.

An initial support is near the $7,540 level. Besides, the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent surge from the $7,166 low to $7,652 high is near $7,537. If there are more downside, the next stop could be near the $7,460 level (the recent breakout zone).

The net major support could be $7,400, and the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent surge from the $7,166 low to $7,652 high. At the moment, there is a short term breakout pattern forming with resistance near $7,590 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair.

If there is an upside break above the $7,590 and $7,600 resistance levels, bitcoin is likely to resume its upward move. The next resistance is near the $7,652 high, above which the price could surge towards the $7,800 level.

Any further gains will most likely lead the price towards the key $8,000 resistance area, where sellers are likely to take a stand.
