Bitcoin price started a sharp decline after it broke the $60,000 support zone against the US Dollar. BTC is correcting gains, but it is likely to face sellers below $58,000.

  • Bitcoin declined heavily below the $60,000 and $58,000 support levels.
  • The price is now trading well below $58,000 and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours).
  • There was a break below a key bullish trend line with support near $62,000 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair is correcting losses, but it might face resistance near $58,000 and $60,000.

The first major resistance is near the $57,000 level. It is near the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $62,692 high to $51,132 low. The main resistance is now forming near the $58,500 level, above which the price might start a fresh increase.

More Losses in BTC?

If bitcoin fails above the $56,000 level, there is a risk of more losses. The first major support is near the $55,000 and $54,800 levels.

The next major support is near the $53,800 level. Any more losses might call for a fresh drop towards the $52,000 support levels. In the stated case, there are even chances of a drop towards the main $50,000 support zone in the near term.
