Bitcoin Price Weekly Analysis (BTC)This past week, bitcoin price started a strong recovery from the $9,700 swing support against the US Dollar. The BTC/USD pair climbed above the $10,500 and $11,000 resistance levels. The upward move was very positive since the price surpassed the $11,200 and $11,500 resistance levels. Finally, the price broke the $11,800 resistance and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours).
Finally, there was a break above the $12,000 resistance level, but the price failed to continue higher. A swing high was formed near $12,050 and the price recently corrected lower. It trimmed gains and declined below the $11,500 support level. Moreover, there was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $9,650 swing low to $12,050 swing high. The decline was such that the price spiked below the $11,000 support level.
However, the $10,800 level acted as a strong support. Additionally, bitcoin stayed above the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $9,650 swing low to $12,050 swing high.
