Bitcoin Could Correct In Short Term In the past few days, there was a steady increase in bitcoin above the $9,500 and $9,850 resistance levels against the US Dollar. BTC even climbed above the $10,000 barrier and settled well above the 100 hourly simple moving average. Finally, the price tested the $10,200 area and a new 2020 high is formed near $10,201.

Bitcoin Price An immediate support is near the $10,000 level. The first key support is near the $9,930 level since it is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the $9,658 low to $10,201 high. The main support is near the $9,850 level, where bitcoin bulls are likely to emerge again. Any further losses may perhaps damage the current bullish market sentiment and the price might slide towards $9,500. Dips Present Buying Opportunity? The current price action suggests that bitcoin price is correcting lower from the $10,201 high. If there is a break below the $10,000 support, the price will most likely test the $9,850 support. Having said that, the price is still in a strong uptrend and a short term correction towards $9,850 could be considered as a decent buying opportunity. Besides, only a daily close below the $9,500 area might start a substantial downside correction. Technical indicators: Hourly MACD – The MACD is slowly gaining pace in the bearish zone.
