Bitcoin price analysis: Short term support helps, but bounce won't be bigger

  • BTC bounces from short term support line.
  • Oscillating between support and resistance.

Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalisation and poster boy of the crypto world, managed to bounce from the short term support even as the bounce from this support won't be big enough as there's resistance too, not far away from current price.

BTC/USD is down 0.7 percent on day at $6,354 and trading in a narrow band of just about one percent for the day. On the 30-minute chart, BTC has managed to bounce from an ascending trendline even as the bounce from this support won't take it too far.

Descending trendline resistance would act as a barrier around $6,380-90 mark. Gven the range, it shouldn't surprise bulls and bears together if the largest crypto manages to give a break out on either side, which would give about 3-5 percent movement once the range is broken.
