Bitcoin (BTC/USD) pared some of its recent strong gains early in today’s Asian session as the pair moved lower toward the psychologically-important 8000 figure after trading as high as the 9478.66 level during yesterday’s European session. Large Stops were triggered above the 8763.40 level during the climb higher, a downside price objective related to selling pressure that commenced around the 9214.67 area in mid-March, before Stops were reached above the 9214.67 level itself. Additional major Stops were elected above the 9082.20 and 9362.24 levels, representing upside price objectives related to buying pressure that originated around the 3858.00 level in March. Earlier this week, Stops were elected above major levels during the pair’s appreciation to fresh multi-week highs, including the 7832.92 area that represents the 76.4% retracement of the recent depreciation from 7996.48 to 7335.79. Other important levels above which Stops were reached earlier this week are the 7751.67, 8162.36, and 8405.58 areas, downside price objectives related to selling pressure that commenced in February around the 10522.51 area.
Stops were also reached above the 8032.98, 8258.59, and 8484.22 areas during the climb, all of which represent downside price objectives related to selling pressure that commenced around the 9214.67 area in March. Traders will be curious to see how price activity reacts around these levels during the pair’s eventual depreciation. If BTC/USD is able to resume its upward trajectory, the traders will closely monitor additional upside price objectives around the 9575.05, 9750.51, and 9982.41 levels.
