Bitcoin price is currently recovering and trading above $11,500 against the US Dollar. BTC is likely to accelerate higher once it clears the $11,700 resistance and the 100 hourly SMA.<\/em><\/p>\n Bitcoin price formed a decent support base above the $11,350 level and recently started a recovery wave against the US Dollar. BTC broke a couple of key hurdles near the $11,500 and $11,600 levels.<\/p>\n There was also a break above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $11,900 swing high to $11,350 swing low. The price is now trading above $11,650, but it is facing a major resistance near $11,700 and the 100 hourly simple moving average<\/a>.<\/p>\n There is also a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $11,690 on the hourly chart of the BTC\/USD pair. The trend line is close to the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $11,900 swing high to $11,350 swing low.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n A successful break above the trend line resistance, $11,700, and the 100 hourly SMA could lead the price towards the $11,800 resistance. A successful close above the $11,800 level might lead the price towards the $12,000 barrier in the coming sessions.<\/p>\n In the mentioned bullish case, the bulls are likely to gain strength and there are chances of a drift towards the $12,500 level.<\/p>\n If bitcoin fails to continue higher above the 100 hourly SMA or the $11,700 resistance, there could be a fresh rejection and a bearish reaction.<\/p>\n\n
