The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent drop from the $34,530 swing high to $31,560 low is also acting as a resistance for the bulls. To start a decent increase, the price must settle above the $33,200 level and the 100 hourly SMA. The next major resistance sits near $33,500.

Fresh Decline in BTC?

If bitcoin fails to recover above the $33,000 and $33,200 resistance levels, there is a risk of a fresh decline. An initial support on the downside is near the $32,500 level.

The first major support is now near the $32,000 zone. The main support is now forming near the $31,500 zone. A close below the $31,500 level could put a lot of pressure on the bulls. In the stated case, the price is likely to dive further towards the $30,000 level.

Technical indicators:

Hourly MACD – The MACD is struggling to gain pace in the bullish zone.

Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for BTC/USD is now just above the 50 level.

Major Support Levels – $32,200, followed by $32,000.
