Resistance Levels: $10,500, $10,000, $9,500
Support levels: $9,200, $8,800, $8,500
BTC/USD Daily ChartBTC/USD has slipped beneath daily MA 50 on the daily chart at currently $9,450. The sell-off is likely to gain intensity with the next emphasis on $9,000 (the lower boundary of the ascending trendline) and $8,800, supported by $8,500 (the lowest May 25 level). On the upside, a continual push beyond $9,500 is required to get the rebound back on course. The next local resistance is active at the weekly $9,792 strong level, while the ultimate barrier emerges at $10,000.
Consolidation may keep carrying the day for now until Bitcoin attempts a breakout beyond $9,800 where the right volume may support as well. On the contrary, in the particular instance where sellers gain greater control and dominance in the upcoming sessions, expect support from the horizontal support line at ($8,800), which follows the ascending trendline immediately.
BTC/USD 4-Hour ChartThe sell-off stalled on the intraday chart after hitting the ascending trendline at around $9,200. Once this is out of the path, the downside is probable to gain momentum at $8,800-$8,500 with the next priority on the consolidation channel’s lower boundary. On the positive, to alleviate the bearish pressure and get the rebound back on track, we’ll need to see a push back beyond $9,200. The next resistance comes at $9,792 high on Monday.
BTC/USD is already shifting at low volatility, despite a short-term bias. The BTC/ USD pair is only bullish whilst also trading beyond the level of $9,500, key resistance is discovered at $10,000, and $10,500. If the BTC/USD pair exchanges beneath the level of $9,200, sellers may test the support levels of $8,800 and $8,500.
