Bitcoin Price

The first key resistance is near the $60,650 level. A clear move above the $60,650 resistance might start a steady increase in the coming sessions. The next key resistance could be $61,200. A close above the $61,200 resistance might spark more upsides. In the stated case, the price could rise and test the $62,500 resistance.


More Downsides In BTC?


If Bitcoin fails to rise above the $60,500 resistance zone, it could continue to move down. Immediate support on the downside is near the $60,000 level.

Any more losses might send the price toward the $58,450 support in the near term.
