There is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $11,690 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken). The pair must settle above the $11,800 level to move into a positive zone in the near term. Bitcoin Price is Recovering

Bitcoin price formed a decent support base above the $11,350 level and recently started a recovery wave against the US Dollar. BTC broke a couple of key hurdles near the $11,500 and $11,600 levels.

There was also a break above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $11,900 swing high to $11,350 swing low. The price is now trading above $11,650, but it is facing a major resistance near $11,700 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

A successful break above the trend line resistance, $11,700, and the 100 hourly SMA could lead the price towards the $11,800 resistance. A successful close above the $11,800 level might lead the price towards the $12,000 barrier in the coming sessions.

In the mentioned bullish case, the bulls are likely to gain strength and there are chances of a drift towards the $12,500 level.

Fresh Rejection in BTC?
