Bitcoin Price Resistance

This past week, bitcoin price started an upside correction after dropping to the $6,130 level against the US Dollar. The BTC/USD pair moved above the $6,200 and $6,400 resistance levels. There was also a break above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last downside move from the $7,785 high to $6,130 swing low. However, the price faced a lot of sellers around the $6,700 level.

There was a rejection from a declining channel with current resistance at $6,500 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC/USD pair. Moreover, the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last downside move from the $7,785 high to $6,130 swing low acted as a hurdle. The price moved down below $6,600 but found support. It is currently moving higher once again and is attempting a break above the same channel and $6,500. Should the price succeed in moving past the channel resistance, it could move higher towards the $6,600 and $6,700 resistance levels. Above this last, the next hurdle sits around the $6,800 level.
