  • The price is trading below $44,000 and the 100-hour simple moving average.
  • On the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken), a break has occurred below the main bullish trendline with support at $44,000.

Bitcoin Price Faces Hurdles

Meanwhile, immediate resistance is close to the $44,000 level. The first major resistance is at $44,200. Currently, major resistance is forming near the $44,500 level. The price could go higher once it breaks above the $44,500 level. The next major resistance level is $45,450. Any further gains above the $45,450 level could open the door for a move towards the $46,200 level.

Will there be more losses in BTC?

The next major support is near $42,800. A break below $42,800 could see the price gain bearish momentum. If indicated, the price may fall towards the $42,150 support in the near term.
