BTC/USD Medium-term Trend: Ranging


Resistance Levels: $6,500, $6,600, $6,700
Support levels: $6,100, $6,000, $5,900

Last week the overall trend of Bitcoin was bearish. The price of Bitcoin was above the $7,000 price level. The bears broke the $7,000 price level and were approaching the $6,000 price level. The assumption last week was that price is not likely to break the support level at $6,000. One of the reasons is that the level had not been broken since November 2017. On August 11, price tested the level at a price of $6,081.80 and pulled back.

Today, the BTC price is in a bullish trend at a price of $6,462.78 as at the time of writing. The BTC price is getting stronger as the bears were to defend the $6,000 price level. Traders are looking out for buy setups to initiate long trades. Nevertheless, the MACD line and the signal line are below the zero line which indicates a sell signal. The price of Bitcoin is above the 12-day EMA and the 26-day EMA which indicates that price is in a bullish trend. The Relative Strength Index period 14 is level 54 which indicates that price is in a sideways trend zone.
