It tested the $10,400 resistance and a high is formed near $10,415. The price is currently correcting lower and trading near the $10,320 level. An initial support is near the $10,280 level or the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent rise from the $9,891 low to $10,415 high.
The first major support on the downside is near the broke channel resistance and $10,150. The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent rise from the $9,891 low to $10,415 high is also near $10,150.
On the upside, the price is facing a couple of strong hurdles near $10,400 and $10,500. If the highlighted double bottom pattern plays well, there are chances of a strong increase above $10,500 and $10,550 in the near term.
Fresh Rejection in BTC?
If the bulls fail to gain strength and bitcoin dips below the $10,150 support, it could revisit the $10,000 and $9,880 support levels.
A close below the $9,880 low is likely to invalidate the double bottom pattern. In the stated case, the price might decline further towards the $9,600 level.
