The price is now approaching a couple of major hurdles near $10,850, $10,920 and $11,000. A successful daily close above the $11,000 resistance level is needed to start a strong upward move.
The next key resistance is near the $11,200 level, above which the bulls are likely to aim a test of the $11,500 level in the near term.
Another Rejection in BTC?
If bitcoin fails to continue higher above the $10,850 resistance or the $10,920 hurdle, there is a risk of another bearish reaction. An initial support on the downside is the channel trend line at $10,720.
A break below the channel support could lead the price towards the $10,650 support. The next major support is near the $10,600 level since it is close to the 100 hourly simple moving average.
