However, the bulls are now facing resistance near the $63,500 zone. There is also a key contracting triangle forming with resistance near $63,700 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair.
The triangle resistance is near the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $64,892 swing high to $61,292 low. A successful break above the triangle resistance could spark an upside break above the $64,000 level. In the stated case, the price could rally towards the $65,000 level. Any more gains might call for a move towards the $66,500 and $66,800 levels in the near term.
Dips Supported in BTC?
