BTC/USD – Daily Chart

Following its rejection at the $37,000 resistance zone, BTC price has made a U-turn as the market resumes a downward move. The current retracement is expected to subside above the $34,000 support as the market resumes its upward move. However, the BTC price has already fallen above the $34,000 support. The current retracement will continue if price breaks below the $34,000 support. Besides, the BTC price has already broken below the 21-day SMA. A break below the moving averages will accelerate the selling pressure on the downside. On the downside, if the bears are successful, Bitcoin will decline to the $31,000 support. Nevertheless, if the $31,000 support cracks, Bitcoin will crash to $28,000 of $20,000 low. In the meantime, there are bullish signals above the $34,000 support. The upward move will resume if the current support holds.
