Bitcoin price is holding the $11,650 and $11,550 support levels against the US Dollar. BTC is currently recovering, but it must surpass the 100 hourly SMA to start a fresh surge.<\/em><\/p>\n After a sharp downside correction, bitcoin price found support above $11,550<\/a> against the US Dollar. BTC remained well bid above the $11,550 level, but it settled below the 100 hourly simple moving average.<\/p>\n A swing low is formed near $11,581 and the price is currently recovering. It broke the $11,800 resistance zone, plus there was a break above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $12,491 high to $11,580 swing low.<\/p>\n Moreover, there was a break above a crucial bearish trend line with resistance near $11,810 on the hourly chart of the BTC\/USD pair. Bitcoin is clearly showing a few positive signs above the $11,800 level, but it is facing a strong resistance near $11,950 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $12,491 high to $11,580 swing low is also near $12,035. Therefore, the bulls need to clear the 100 hourly SMA and then gain strength above $12,000 to start a fresh increase in the coming sessions.<\/p>\n In the mentioned case, the price could easily drift towards the $12,150 and $12,250 levels. The main hurdle is still near the $12,500 level for a larger upward move.<\/p>\n If bitcoin fails to continue higher above the 100 hourly SMA or the $12,000 barrier, there are chances of a fresh decline. An initial support is near the $11,650 level.<\/p>\n\n
