Bitcoin price started a downside correction from the $38,000 resistance against the US Dollar. BTC is holding the $36,000 support and it could rise again in the near term.

  • Bitcoin extended its rise and it even cleared the $38,000 resistance (as discussed yesterday).
  • The price is still trading above $36,375 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
  • There is a major contracting triangle forming with support near $37,350 and $36,000 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair is likely to break the triangle resistance at $37,500 to start a fresh increase.

The triangle resistance is near the $37,500 level. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level recent decline from the $38,716 high to $36,220 low. If there is a clear break above the triangle resistance and $37,500, there are chances of a steady increase.

The next major resistance is near the $38,000 level. A successful close above the $38,000 level could set the pace for a move towards the $38,800 and $39,000 levels.

Downside Break in BTC?

If bitcoin fails to clear the $37,500 resistance and the triangle upper trend line, it could continue to move down. The first key support is near the triangle lower trend line at $36,350.
