Bitcoin Price Analysis BTC/USD Forecast

The price was rejected from the 61.8% % Fibonacci retracement level of the last wave from the $5210 low to $5855 high. Therefore, there is a chance that the price might resume its uptrend above the 5700 level in the near term.

At the moment, there is a short-term contracting triangle forming with support at $5500 on the hourly chart of BTC/USD.

The triangle resistance is near $5700-20. A successful close above the mentioned $5720 resistance would set the pace for at least a test of $5855.

Should there be a break above $5855, the price would easily climb towards $6000. The hourly RSI is at 62 and is showing positive signs, which means BTC/USD remains in the bullish zone above $5400.

Buying as long as the price is above $5400-5350 can be considered, but with a stop on a close below the $5300 level. Alternatively, a close above $5720 could also trigger a solid rally. The overall trend remains bullish for further gains in the near term.

Trade safe traders and enjoy the ride!!!
