Bitcoin failed again to clear the $45,500 resistance zone against the US Dollar. BTC is declining and remains at a risk of more losses below $42,500.

  • Bitcoin attempted another upside break above $45,500 but failed.
  • The price is trading below $43,500 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
  • There was a break below a key bullish trend line with support near $43,500 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair could decline sharply if there is a clear move below the $42,500 support zone.

Bitcoin Price Corrects Gains

Bitcoin price attempted an upside break above the $45,500 resistance zone. However, BTC struggled to gain pace above the $45,500 level. A high was formed near $45,900 and the price started a fresh decline.

Bitcoin is now finding bids near the $42,600 level. A low is formed near $42,664 and the price is now consolidating losses. An immediate resistance is near the $43,450 level. It is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $45,900 high to $42,664 low.
