Bitcoin is still holding the $9,000 support zone against the US Dollar. BTC is now approaching a crucial juncture and it could either rally above $9,200 or start a sharp decline below $9,000.<\/em><\/p>\n This past week, bitcoin made another attempt to gain traction above $9,300 resistance<\/a> against the US Dollar, but it failed. BTC trimmed gains, and declined below the $9,200 support level and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours).<\/p>\n It even spiked below the $9,000 support level and traded as low as $8,933. Recently, there was a fresh increase above the $9,000 level and it seems like the price is forming a decent support base above the $9,000 level<\/a>.<\/p>\n There was a break above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $9,300 swing high to $8,933 low. Bitcoin price is now facing a major resistance near the $9,150 and $9,200 levels. There is also a significant bearish trend line forming with resistance near $9,140 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC\/USD pair.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The trend line is close to the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $9,300 swing high to $8,933 low. Above the trend line, the 100 simple moving average (4-hours) is near the $9,220 resistance.<\/p>\n The main resistance is still near the $9,300 level. Therefore, BTC must surpass the $9,200 and $9,300 resistance levels to start a strong increase in the near term. If the bulls succeed, the price might easily rise towards the $9,500 and $9,600 levels.<\/p>\n If bitcoin struggles to clear the $9,200 and $9,300 resistance levels, there is a risk of a sharp decline. The first major support is near the $9,000 level and connecting bullish trend line on the same chart.<\/p>\n A successful bearish break below the $9,000 support could spark a sustained downward move below the $8,800 level in the coming sessions. The next major support is seen near the $8,500 level.<\/p>\n Technical indicators<\/p>\n 4 hours MACD \u2013 The MACD for BTC\/USD is gaining pace in the bullish zone.<\/p>\n 4 hours RSI (Relative Strength Index) \u2013 The RSI for BTC\/USD is currently just above the 50 level.<\/p>\n Major Support Level \u2013 $9,000<\/p>\n Major Resistance Level \u2013 $9,200<\/p>\n\n
