Bitcoin Price Holds Gains Above $67K

Bitcoin price extended its increase above the $66,500 and $67,000 resistance levels. BTC even spiked above the $68,000 level before the bears appeared. It seems like the bears are active near the $68,500 level.

The recent high was formed near $68,240 and the price is slowly moving lower. There was a move below the $67,500 level. The price dipped below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $66,600 swing low to the $68,240 high.

Bitcoin price is now trading above $66,800 and the 100 hourly Simple moving average. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support at $62,200 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. The trend line is close to the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $66,600 swing low to the $68,240 high.

If there is a fresh increase, the price could face resistance near the $68,250 level. The first key resistance is near the $68,500 level. A clear move above the $68,500 resistance might spark another increase in the coming sessions.

The next key resistance could be $68,800. The next major hurdle sits at $69,200. A close above the $69,200 resistance might push the price further higher. In the stated case, the price could rise and test the $70,000 resistance.

Are Dips Supported In BTC?

If Bitcoin fails to climb above the $68,250 resistance zone, it could start a downside correction. Immediate support on the downside is near the $67,200 level.

The first major support is $66,600. The next support is now near $66,000. Any more losses might send the price toward the $65,500 support zone in the near term.

Gold hit a one-year low while central banks bought 321 tonnes — the sellers were never the ones you think Spot gold closed at 3,876 on Thursday, down 2.8% and its lowest close in more than a year, with an intraday low near 3,852. The dollar is at a 19-month high of 103.21 and the 10-year yield is at 5.10%, so the price move is easy to explain. What is harder to explain is who sold: central banks bought 321 tonnes in Q3, the PBoC added for a 24th straight month, ETF holdings are near a record 4,256 tonnes, and roughly 95% of the futures selling came from non-reportable and sovereign-type accounts rather than hedge funds. This piece separates the two books that have to balance.
