Bitcoin Price Action Analysis

BTC has penetrated the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level from the latest rise from $39,660 to $44,420. Furthermore, we can see BTC has lost a key support level at $43,250. As of now, the price is around $42,750 and the 1-hour candles are dipping below the SMA100.
The first resistance level is at $43,000 followed closely by $43,200. Stepping above this level would pave the way for BTC to reach $44,000 once again. Following that, the next stop will be at $44,400 and then the $45,500 will be next.
On the other hand, if Bitcoin price fails to surpass the $43,200 and turns downward, the price would have another dip. In that case, the $42,500 will be the first support level followed by $42,000. This level is near the 50% Fibonacci retracement level. Dipping below $42,000 could bring BTC down to $41,500 and then $40,500.
