Bitcoin price is holding the $55,000 support zone against the US Dollar. BTC must clear the $57,000 resistance and the 100 hourly SMA to move into a positive zone.

  • Bitcoin is somehow holding the $55,000 and $54,500 support levels.
  • The price is now facing a strong resistance near $57,500 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
  • There was a break above a major declining channel with resistance near $55,250 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair could start a strong increase if there is a clear break above the $57,500 resistance zone.

Bitcoin Price is Facing Hurdles

Bitcoin remained below the main $57,500 resistance zone. BTC declined below the $55,000 support, but it found support near the $53,400 zone. A low was formed near $53,338 before the price started a fresh increase.

It broke the $54,500 and $55,000 resistance levels. There was also a break above a major declining channel with resistance near $55,250 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. The pair even climbed above $57,000, but it failed to clear the 100 hourly simple moving average.

On the upside, the price is facing a strong resistance near the $57,100 and $57,500 levels. The 100 hourly simple moving average is also near the $57,500 level to act as a hurdle. A successful break above the $57,500 resistance is must to start a strong increase in the coming sessions.

Dips Supported in BTC?

If bitcoin fails to clear the $57,000 and $57,500 resistance levels, it could correct lower. An immediate support on the downside is near the $55,200 level.

The first key support is near the $54,800 level. It is near the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $53,338 low to $57,151 high. Any more losses may possibly call for a retest of the $53,350 zone in the near term.

Technical indicators:

Hourly MACD – The MACD is struggling to gain momentum in the bullish zone.

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

Major Support Levels – $55,200, followed by $54,800.

Major Resistance Levels – $56,500, $57,100 and $57,500.
