Bitcoin Turns Red, Why BTC Could Trade To New Monthly Lows
Bitcoin price remained in a bearish zone below the $21,000 pivot level. The bulls struggled to push the price higher and there was a bearish reaction below the $20,800 level.
The price traded below the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the key recovery from the $19,750 swing low to $21,780 high. The decline was such that the bears even pushed the price below the $20,550 and $20,500 support levels.
It tested the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the key recovery from the $19,750 swing low to $21,780 high. Bitcoin is now trading below the $20,500 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
An immediate resistance on the upside is near the $20,520 level. The next key resistance is near the $20,750 zone. There is also a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $20,820 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USDT pair.
A clear move above the trend line resistance and then $21,000 could initiate a decent increase. In the stated case, the price could rise above the $21,250 level. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near the $21,750 zone, above which the price may perhaps rise towards the $22,500 level.
If bitcoin fails to clear the $21,000 resistance zone, it could continue to move down. An immediate support on the downside is near the $20,220 level. A downside break below the $20,220 support zone could push the price further lower. The next major support sits near the $20,000 zone. Any more losses could send the price towards the $18,800 level or a new monthly low.
