Bitcoin price traded to a new all-time high above $66,800 before correcting lower against the US Dollar. BTC traded below $63,000 and it remains at a risk of more downsides.

  • Bitcoin rallied above the $65,000 and $66,000 resistance levels before correcting lower.
  • The price is now trading below $63,000 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
  • There was a break below a major bullish trend line with support near $63,200 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair could accelerate lower if it remains below the $64,000 pivot level.

Bitcoin Price Corrects Lower

A low is formed near $62,050 and it is now consolidating losses. An immediate resistance is near the $63,200 level. It is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $66,982 swing high to $62,050 low.

The 100 hourly SMA is also positioned just above the $63,200 level. A clear break above the $63,200 resistance could open the doors for a fresh increase. The next major resistance sits near the $64,500 level, above which the price might rise towards the $66,000 level.

The $64,500 resistance is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $66,982 swing high to $62,050 low. Any more gains may possibly call for a new all-time high above the $67,000 level in the near term.
