Bitcoin (BTC) price is showing signs of bearish continuation below $6,800 against the US Dollar. BTC bears seems to be eyeing a test of the $6,500 support or $6,200.<\/em><\/p>\n After consolidating above the $7,000 support, bitcoin bears gained strength<\/a> against the US Dollar. As a result, BTC price nosedived below the $7,000 support and settled well below the 100 hourly simple moving average.<\/p>\n The price is down around 4% and it even broke the $6,880 support area. A new monthly low is formed near $6,800 and the price is currently consolidating losses.<\/p>\n An immediate resistance is near the $6,880 level. Besides, the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent downward move from the $7,135 high to $6,800 low is also near the $6,880 area.<\/p>\n More importantly, there is a short term contracting triangle forming with resistance near $6,880 on the hourly chart of the BTC\/USD pair. Therefore, an upside break above $6,880 level might start a short term upside correction.<\/p>\n The next resistance is near the $6,980 level. Additionally, the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent downward move from the $7,135 high to $6,800 low is also near the $6,980 level.<\/p>\n However, the main resistance is seen near the $7,000 and $7,015 levels (the recent breakdown zone). A successful daily close above $7,015 is needed to start a substantial recovery in the near term.<\/p>\n Conversely, the price is likely to accelerate lower below the $6,840 and $6,820 levels. If bitcoin breaks the $6,800 low, the next stop for the bears could be near $6,600 or $6,500<\/a>.<\/p>\n Any further losses may perhaps lead the price towards the key $6,200 support area, where the bulls are likely to take a stand.<\/p>\nBitcoin Price Analysis<\/h2>\n
