Bitcoin Price Turns Green
Yesterday, we discussed the chances of a strong increase in bitcoin price if it clears the $9,300 resistance against the US Dollar. BTC price did break the $9,300 resistance and it even surged above the $9,500 level.
The upward move was strong as the price spiked above the $9,600 level and settled above the 100 hourly simple moving average. The price traded as high as $9,624 and it is currently correcting lower.

Bitcoin Price
The channel support is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent rally from the $9,108 low to $9,624 high. The main support is now near the $9,300 level (the recent breakout zone).
If the price breaks the channel support, the bulls are likely to defend the main $9,300 support. Any further losses may perhaps lead the price towards the $9,200 and $9,100 support levels in the near term.
More Gains in BTC?
As long as bitcoin is above the $9,300 support zone, it is likely to continue higher. An initial resistance is near the $9,600 and $9,650 levels.
The first major resistance on the upside is near the $9,800 level. If the bulls clear the $9,800 resistance, the price could continue to rise towards the $9,950 and $10,000 resistance levels in the coming sessions. Any further gains might lead the price towards $10,200.
