Bitcoin price is currently struggling to clear the $11,500 and $11,550 resistance levels against the US Dollar. BTC could start a steady increase if it clears the $11,500 resistance.<\/em><\/p>\n Bitcoin price started a short-term upside correction from the $11,100 support against the US Dollar. BTC recovered above the $11,200 and $11,400 levels, but it faced a strong resistance near the $11,500 level.<\/p>\n A high is formed near $11,540 and the price is still well below the 100 hourly simple moving average<\/a>. It is currently declining and trading below $11,400. There was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent recovery wave from the $11,100 swing low to $11,540 high.<\/p>\n The next major support is near the $11,330 level since it is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent recovery wave from the $11,100 swing low to $11,540 high. It seems like there is a major breakout pattern forming with resistance near $11,520 on the hourly chart of the BTC\/USD pair.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n On the upside, the bulls are facing a major hurdle near the trend line, $11,500, $11,550, and the 100 hourly simple moving average. These are key reasons why a successful close above the $11,550 level and the 100 hourly SMA is must to increase chances of a fresh increase.<\/p>\n The next major resistance is near the $11,700 level, above which bitcoin could attempt an upside break above the $11,800 level in the near term.<\/p>\n If bitcoin fails to recover above the $11,500 and $11,500 levels, there could be another bearish reaction. The first major support is near the $11,330 and $11,300 levels.<\/p>\n\n
