Bitcoin price is showing signs of a decent recovery above $10,200 against the US Dollar. However, BTC is still trading well below the main $10,500 resistance area.<\/em><\/p>\n After forming a decent support near $9,900, BTC started an upside correction against the US Dollar. The price traded above the $10,000 and $10,200 resistance levels to move into a short term positive zone. Moreover, there was a break above the $10,300 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. However, the price struggled to gain momentum above the key $10,500 resistance level (as discussed in the weekly forecast<\/a>).<\/p>\n During the rise, there was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance near $10,270 on the hourly chart of the BTC\/USD pair. Bitcoin spiked towards the $10,700 level and formed a swing high near $10,697. At the moment, the price is correcting lower and is trading well below $10,500. It broke the $10,400 level and tested the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent rise from the $9,914 low to $10,697 high.<\/p>\n It seems like the $10,250 level and the broken trend line is acting as a support. The next key support is near the $10,200 level. It represents the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the recent rise from the $9,914 low to $10,697 high. The main support is near the $10,100 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average<\/a>. If the price fails to recover again, there could be a fresh decline towards the $10,000 and $9,900 levels.<\/p>\n On the upside, the price must settle above $10,500 to gain bullish momentum. In the mentioned case, the next stop for the bulls could be $10,700 and $10,800. However, if the price accelerates above $10,500, it could aim to test the $11,000 level.<\/p>\nBitcoin Price Analysis<\/h2>\n
