  • Bitcoin traded below an important support zone at $42,500.
  • The price is trading below $42,500 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
  • There is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $42,200 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair could decline further if it fails to recover above the $42,800 zone.
