Bitcoin price climbed above the $38,000 resistance against the US Dollar, but it failed near $39,500. BTC is correcting lower and it might dive if it breaks the $37,000 support.

  • Bitcoin failed to gain momentum for a break above $39,500 and $40,000.
  • The price is currently trading above $37,000 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
  • There is a major rising channel forming with support near $37,400 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair must stay above $37,000 and the 100 hourly SMA to avoid a major decline.

Bitcoin Price Trims Gains

Bitcoin started a decent increase above the $37,500 resistance zone. BTC even broke the $38,000 resistance level and settled well above the 100 hourly simple moving average.

The bulls gained strength for a push above the $39,000 level. However, they struggled to a move towards the $40,000 level. The price topped near the $39,500 level and it recently started a fresh decline. There was a break below the $38,500 and $38,000 levels.

On the upside, an immediate resistance is near the $38,200 level. The first major resistance is near the $39,500 level. The main resistance is still near the $40,000 zone. A clear break above the $40,000 level could set the pace for a larger increase.

Downside Break in BTC?

If bitcoin fails to clear the $38,500 resistance, it could extend its decline. An initial support on the downside is near the $37,500 level.

The first major support is near the $37,200 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. If there is a downside break below the $37,200 support and $37,000, the price could start a sharp decline towards $35,000.

Technical indicators:

Hourly MACD – The MACD is now gaining pace in the bearish zone.

Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for BTC/USD is now below the 50 level.

Major Support Levels – $37,200, followed by $37,000.
