Bitcoin Price Analysis
There were mostly ranging moves above $7,400 in bitcoin price during the past two sessions against the US Dollar. The BTC/USD pair struggled to break the $7,580 and $7,600 resistance levels. As a result, there was a minor downside reaction from the recent high of $7,602. There was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last leg from the $7,260 low to $7,602 high.

However, the decline was limited by the $7,400 support area. More importantly, yesterday’s highlighted important bullish trend line with current support at $7,450 held declines on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. Additionally, the 50% Fib retracement level of the last leg from the $7,260 low to $7,602 high protected losses below the $7,400 support. The pair is on the move again and it retested the $7,580 and $7,600 resistance levels. Both the mentioned levels are important barriers and preventing gains above $7,650.

Great article! There are huge levels of uncertainty within the market, alongside low levels of volume, it is continuing to force the price of Bitcoin lower. A healthy trend will always have areas where it pulls back, normally around the major zones of support/resistance and this exactly what price is developing right now. A downtrend has formed creating lower highs and lower lows which has forced investors/traders to short the market and send price lower. I believe price will continue to rise to roughly the $8,000 area before we see this downtrend continue.
