Bitcoin price followed a bearish path after it failed to surpass the $8,500 resistance against the US Dollar. BTC is now approaching a crucial support near $7,750 and $7,600.<\/p>\n
Recently, bitcoin bears took control and they were able to push the price below $8,000 against the US Dollar. Moreover, BTC settled below the $8,000 handle and the 100 hourly simple moving average.<\/p>\n
The price is now trading below the 50% Fib retracement level of the last major rally from the $7,302 low to $8,460 high. During the decline, there was a break below a key bullish trend line with support near $8,000 on the hourly chart of the BTC\/USD pair.<\/p>\n
Bitcoin Price<\/p>\n
The pair is now trading near a significant buy zone at $7,600-$7,750. An immediate support is near the $7,750 level. Additionally, the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the last major rally from the $7,302 low to $8,460 high is at $7,744.<\/p>\n
The last key support is near the $7,600 area (the previous breakout zone). Both $7,750 and $7,600 are important buy zones. Therefore, there are chances of a fresh rally above the $8,000 resistance.<\/p>\n
An initial resistance is near the $7,900 level. There is also a short term declining channel forming with resistance near $7,880 support near $7,930 on the same chart.<\/p>\n
A successful break above the $7,900 and $8,000 resistance levels could set the pace for a decent rally. The next key resistances are near $8,180 and $8,300.<\/p>\n
There are slight chances of a downside break below the $7,600 support. However, if the bears are successful, it could start a steady downtrend and the price might extend its decline towards $7,300 and $7,100.<\/p>\n
Looking at the chart, bitcoin price is losing bearish momentum below $8,000, but the $7,750 and $7,600 supports are important. Overall, the price could either bounce sharply above $8,000 or tumble below $7,750 and $7,600.<\/p>\n
