The bears even pushed the price below the $61,000 and $60,000 support levels. Finally, the price tested the $59,000 zone. A low was formed near $59,040 and the price is now consolidating losses. It is trading below $61,000 and the 55 simple moving average (4 hours).

There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $62,000 on the 4-hour chart of the BTC/USD pair. Immediate resistance on the upside is near the $61,000 level and 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $67,272 swing high to the $59,040 low.

The next major resistance might be near the $63,000 zone or the trend line or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $67,272 swing high to the $59,040 low.

A clear move above the $63,000 level might send the price toward $64,000. The main resistance is now forming near the $65,350 zone, above which the price might rise toward the $67,500 level. Any more gains might push the price toward the $70,000 zone.
