Bitcoin Eyes $90K as Price Rebounds and Consolidates
Bitcoin has initiated a strong recovery wave, successfully climbing above the $88,000 mark after forming a solid base around the $83,500 level. The cryptocurrency is currently undergoing a consolidation phase, with significant market attention focused on whether it can breach the crucial $90,000 resistance zone in the near term. This upward momentum is a key development following recent price movements.
Navigating Upside Resistance and Potential Gains
The recent recovery saw Bitcoin push past the $85,500 and $86,000 resistance zones, even surpassing the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of a previous downward move (from $92,872 high to $80,595 low). However, bullish forces are presently facing resistance, preventing a decisive break above $90,000. An immediate challenge lies with a bearish trend line offering resistance near $88,200 on the hourly chart. Should Bitcoin successfully settle above the $90,000 level, it could trigger further gains, potentially testing the $91,750 resistance. Sustained buying pressure beyond this could push the price towards $92,500, with subsequent barriers at $93,500 and $94,000.
Downside Risks and Critical Support Levels
Conversely, a failure to surpass the $90,000 resistance could signal a renewed decline for Bitcoin. Immediate support is anticipated around the $86,700 level, with the first major support situated near $86,200. Further downward movement could see the price test the $85,000 zone. The main support level for BTC is positioned at $82,000, and a break below this point could accelerate losses, pushing the price towards $83,500 in the near term. Technical indicators show the Hourly MACD gaining pace in the bullish zone, and the Hourly RSI for BTC/USD is above the 50 level, suggesting underlying strength but caution remains essential given the overhead resistance.
