Can BTC/USD Hold 10000?
Updated
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) sought to reclaim some recent lost ground early in today’s Asian session as the pair continued to encounter some buying activity above the psychologically-important 10000 figure. Traders pushed the pair as high as the 10582.36 area during yesterday’s European session, its strongest print in several days, before traders drove BTC/USD lower down around the 10300 level during yesterday’s North American session. Bids recently emerged around the 10276.19 area, a test of the 10268.20 area that represents the 23.6% retracement of the depreciating range from 10499 to 10200. Technical trading became more evident thereafter when buying pressure was seen around the 10344.50 area, representing the 50% retracement of the depreciating range from 10489 to 10200. The 10378.60 and 10420.80 areas represent additional upside retracement levels in this depreciating range. BTC/USD bulls are looking to see if the pair can establish a base above the 10354.65 area, representing the 23.6% retracement of the depreciating range from 12086 to 9819.83. The next upside retracement levels in this depreciating range include the 10685.51, 10952.92, 11220.32, and 11551.18 areas. Also, the 10449.19 area represents the 23.6% retracement of the depreciating range from 12486.61 to 9819.83. Technical resistance emerged after traders were unable to push the pair back above the 10826.66 area in a recent pullback higher, a level that represents the 61.8% retracement of the recent appreciation from 8940.14 to 13878.67.
Stops were recently elected below the 11120, 11004.10, 10961.41, 10647.72, 10546.15, and 10450.26 areas during the depreciation from recent multi-week highs. Traders note that the recent high of 12486.61 represented a test of the 12496.68 area, an upside price objective related to buying pressure that emerged around the 8055.91 area earlier this year. Traders also remain focused on the 12023.45, 11964.56, 11880.38, 11803.31, 11737.30, 11642.95, 11560.28, and 11533.51 areas during pullbacks higher, representing the retracements of the recent appreciating ranges that commenced around the 9005.00, 8905.84, 8815.01, and 8632.93 areas. Other important technical levels include the 11510.44 area, representing the 50% retracement of a historical depreciation from 19891.99 to 3128.89, as well as the 10200.39, 10139.11, and 10082.97 areas Chartists are observing that the 50-bar MA (4-hourly) is bearishly indicating below the 100-bar MA (4-hourly) and below the 200-bar MA (4-hourly).
