There was also a slight bearish correction to the swing low at $20.21 before the buyers found their bearing and pushed for upside correction above the moving averages.
Bitcoin Gold retraced even higher above $21.00 and stepped slightly beyond $21.8 before making an about-turn move. The declines continued during both the Asian and European trading hours. Importantly, the buyers have defended the short-term support at $20.60 prevent any swings towards $20.00.
In the interim, BTG/USD is exchanging at $20.98 after making a comeback from the support at $20.60.

However, it is essential to note that huge bullish swings are unlikely. A higher support preferably at $21.40 is needed for recoil towards $22.00 to become a reality.
