BTC/USD 60-Minute Chart

As you can see from the 60-minute chart below the price has moved into a clean channel.

Now the BTC/USD pair is at a pivotal point stuck between 10,522.51 and 10,083.10.

There has been some support at 10,100 but if that support is broken it will make a lower high lower low.

That could indicate a change in the short term trend to the downside.

A sustained move above 10,500 is what the bulls are looking for and the majority of the volume peaks are still supporting the buy-side.
