Bitcoin Facing Key Hurdles Yesterday, there was a downside extension in bitcoin price below the $9,600 support against the US Dollar. BTC price even spiked below the $9,500 level and settled well below the 100 hourly simple moving average. Finally, the price traded to a new weekly low at $9,483 before starting an upside correction. It recovered above the $9,500 and $9,600 levels to start the current recovery wave.

Bitcoin Price The price is now showing a few positive signs above the $9,700 area and it could continue to recover. However, there are a few key hurdles on the upside near the $9,940 and $10,000 levels. The 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $10,400 high to $9,483 low is close to $9,940 to act as the first major resistance. The main resistance is near $10,000 since it is near the 100 hourly simple moving average. Therefore, a successful break above $9,940 and then a follow up move above the $10,000 handle is needed to start a fresh and renewed uptrend. In the mentioned case, the price could revisit the $10,500 resistance area. What if the Bulls Fail? There are chances that bitcoin bulls struggle near $9,940 and $10,000. If they fail to gain strength above $10,000, the price may perhaps resume its decline. On the downside, the first support is seen near the $9,600 and $9,500 levels. Any further losses might open the doors for a larger downside correction towards $9,000. Technical indicators: Hourly MACD – The MACD is slowly losing pace in the bullish zone.
