Bitcoin is Plunging, But It’s Too Early to Say Bulls Have Given Up

2020-9-3 07:18

Bitcoin price started a sharp decline from the $12,000 resistance against the US Dollar. BTC must stay above $11,200 and $11,000 to remain in a positive zone.

Bitcoin failed to gain pace above the $12,000 resistance level, and started a sharp decline. The price is down over 5%, and it broke the $11,500 support and the 100 hourly simple moving average. There was a break below a major bullish trend line with support near $11,640 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken). The pair is currently consolidating losses near $11,350 and it might revisit the $11,200 support zone. Bitcoin Price Dives Below $11,500

Yesterday, we saw a crucial rejection above $12,000 for bitcoin price against the US Dollar. BTC topped near the $12,065 level and started a sharp decline. The bears were able to clear the $11,650 and $11,500 support levels to spark a major decline.

The price even broke the $11,350 zone and settled below the 100 hourly simple moving average. There was also a break below a major bullish trend line with support near $11,640 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair.

The pair tested the $11,200 support and a low is formed near $11,186. Recently, there was a recovery wave from the $11,186 low. Bitcoin price recovered above the $11,350 level. It even climbed above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $12,064 high to $11,186 low.

The bulls are currently struggling to push the price above the $11,450 and $11,500 levels (support turned resistance). The next major resistance is near the $11,650 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $12,064 high to $11,186 low is also near the $11,625 level. A successful break above the $11,500 level and then a follow through move above $11,650 is must for a fresh upward move in the near term.
