Bitcoin price surging higher with a bullish bias above $6,000 against the US Dollar. BTC could surge towards the $6,200 level before a strong downside correction.<\/em><\/p>\n Yesterday, there was a sharp decline<\/a> in bitcoin price below $5,900 against the US Dollar due to the Binance exchange security breach. The BTC\/USD pair declined below the $5,800 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. However, the $5,660 level acted as a strong support, resulting in a fresh rise. The price started a strong rise and broke the $5,900 and $5,950 resistance levels. There was even a close above the $5,950 level and the 100 hourly SMA.<\/p>\n During the rise, there was a break above a connecting trend line with resistance at $6,005 on the hourly chart of the BTC\/USD pair. The pair climbed above the $6,050 level and traded to a new 2019 high<\/a> above $6,080. A swing high was formed at $6,096 and the price is currently consolidating gains. An initial support is near $6,020, the broken trend line, and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $5,810 low to $6,096 high. If there is a break below $6,020 and $6,000, the price may test the $5,950 support zone. It represents a strong support and coincides with the 50% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $5,810 low to $6,096 high.<\/p>\n If there is a downside extension, the next support is at $5,920. There is also a connecting bullish trend line on the same chart with support near $5,880. Therefore, the price remains well supported on the downside near $6,020, $6,000 and $5,950. On the upside, there are many hurdles for the bulls near $6,100 and $6,200.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nBitcoin Price Analysis<\/h2>\n
