Bitcoin confluence levels 

There are several strong technical levels above the current price, which means that Bitcoin bulls might have a hard time pushing the price higher. However, a neutral position of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the intraday implies that the coin might enter a range-bound phase.

Let’s have a closer look at the barriers that might influence Bitcoin’s movements in the short run.

Resistance levels

$10,500 - SMA50 (Simple Moving Average) 1-hour, SMA10 4-hour, SMA200 15-min, 38.2% Fibo retracement daily and weekly.
$10,600 - the highest level of the previous day, 23.6% Fibo retracement weekly;
$11,000 - the upper line of 1-day Bollinger Band Pivot Point 1-week Resistance 1.

Support levels

$10,300 - SMA100 daily, SMA10 daily, Pivot Point 1-day Support 1;
$10,000 - 61.8% Fibo retracement weekly, the lower line of 15-min Bollinger Band, Pivot Point 1-day Support 1;
