Bitcoin Price Action Analysis
With a strong rally, BTC finally surpassed $47,500 and at some point went above $48,200 and reached a 24-h high of $48,200. By reaching this point, Bitcoin went for a correction and the price dipped below the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level from the latest rise from $44,468 to $48,200. As of now, BTC is still above the SMA100. Clearly, we can see a breakout pattern on the 1-hour chart, with support level at $46,300.
The first resistance level for the price is at $47,600 followed by $47,800. Surpassing this level can bring BTC out of the triangle pattern and push all the way up to $48,200. In this case, the next resistance level will be waiting at $49,000. At that point, BTC could finally give another try to reach $50,000.
On the other hand, if Bitcoin price fails to surpass $47,800, the correction will likely continue. For this scenario, the first support level will be $47,000 followed closely by $46,800. Following that, the $46,400 near the 50% Fibonacci retracement level will support BTC. This level is also located at the bottom of the triangle pattern. Dipping below the $46,300 can push BTC all the way down to $46,000 where the SMA100 is at. Further decline can squeeze the buyers out of their trades.
