Bitcoin price declined over $5,000 and tested the $45,000 support against the US Dollar. BTC is now correcting losses, but it is facing a strong resistance near $54,000 and $55,000.<\/em><\/p>\n After forming a short-term top, bitcoin price started a sharp decline below the $56,000 level. BTC broke the key $55,000 support level and the 100 hourly simple moving average to move into a bearish zone.<\/p>\n There was also a break below a major bullish trend line<\/a> with support near $54,500 on the hourly chart of the BTC\/USD pair. The pair crashed over $5,000 and it even spiked below the $50,000 support. It tested the $45,000 support before correcting higher.<\/p>\n There was a break above the $50,000 and $52,000 levels. The price even climbed above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $58,350 swing high to $45,000 swing low.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n However, the same trend line support and $55,000 are now acting as a strong resistance. The 100 hourly simple moving average is also near the $55,000 level along with the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $58,350 swing high to $45,000 swing low.<\/p>\n Bitcoin is now moving lower and it seems like it could revisit the $50,000 support level. If the price fails to stay above $50,000, it could decline towards the $46,200 support.<\/p>\n If bitcoin remains stable above the $50,000 level, it could make another attempt to settle above $54,000. The first major resistance is near the $55,000 level and the 100 hourly SMA.<\/p>\n\n
