Bitcoin (BTC) has been facing a significant amount of buying pressure as of late that has allowed it to surge from lows of $9,100 to highs of $12,300. This upwards momentum marks a reversal of the downtrend that the crypto has been facing over the past month.<\/p>\n
Now, analysts are noting that $12,000 is a \u201cline in the sand\u201d that may prove to be a significant level of resistance that holds strong in the near-future, despite bolstered technical strength.<\/p>\n
At the time of writing, Bitcoin<\/a> is trading down marginally at its current price<\/a> of $11,700 and is down significantly from its daily highs of $12,300.<\/p>\n Late last night, BTC rapidly surged to highs of $12,300 before facing a significant increase in selling pressure that sent the cryptocurrency\u2019s price reeling to lows of roughly $11,600, where it found some support before climbing slightly today.<\/p>\n Although $12,000 appears to be a strong level of resistance in the near-term, it is important to note that the cryptocurrency is still up significantly from its recent lows of $9,100, which is the price at which the recent uptrend first began.<\/p>\n Hsaka, a popular crypto analyst on Twitter, recently explained that he believes that Bitcoin\u2019s daily close will be a critical factor that elucidates which direction the crypto is heading next.<\/p>\n \u201c$BTC 1W: The ~12k level seems to be the line in the sand right now. Price has breached it on numerous occasions but hasn’t managed to close above since quite a while. I’m currently flat, waiting to see how this week resolves. Bullish: Close above 12k. Bearish: Close below 11.5k,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nBTC Technical Formations Strengthen<\/strong><\/h2>\n
