Bitcoin price is back in a downtrend below $7,200 against the US Dollar. BTC could continue to move down below $7,000 and $6,880 in the near term.<\/em><\/p>\n This past week, bitcoin struggled to recover above the $7,280 and $7,300 resistance levels<\/a> against the US Dollar. Moreover, BTC price remained well below the $7,400 level and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours).<\/p>\n The recent decline was such that the price declined below the $7,100 support area. A new monthly low is formed near $7,008 and the price is currently consolidating losses.<\/p>\n An initial resistance is near the $7,100 level. Additionally, the first hurdle is near the $7,165 level or the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $7,668 high to $7,008 low.<\/p>\n The next major resistance is near the $7,280 level. Besides, there is a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $7,260 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC\/USD pair. Above the trend line, the 100 simple moving average (4-hours) is near the $7,340 area.<\/p>\n More importantly, the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $7,668 high to $7,008 low is near the $7,338 level. Therefore, the $7,280 and $7,340 levels are important hurdles for a decent recovery<\/a> in the near term.<\/p>\n A clear break above the $7,340 level is likely to open the doors for more upsides above the $7,400 level. On the downside, an immediate support is near the $7,000 level.<\/p>\n If there is a downside break below the $7,000 support, there is a risk of a sharp decline below the $6,880 support. The next major support is near the $6,600 and $6,500 levels, where buyers are likely to appear.<\/p>\nBitcoin Price Weekly Analysis (BTC)<\/h2>\n
