Bitcoin Climbs Above $23,812 And Sets Its Sights On The Next Resistance Level

Bitcoin (BTC) has continued to move in the right direction despite entering the overbought area of the market.

Bitcoin price long term forecast: bullish

Bitcoin traded and climbed to a high of $23,812 yesterday, but was stopped out. Had buyers managed to break through the $24,000 resistance, the BTC price would have reached a high of $25,212. As the BTC price fell below the current resistance level, it failed to break through the $24,000 resistance. The cryptocurrency value fell to a low above $22,920 before consolidating again. The BTC price will continue to move in a range below the resistance level. The BTC/USD price has been hovering between $22,300 and $23,000 since January 21. If the bears break below the $22,300 support, the selling pressure will increase and reach the $21,000 support.

What is the next direction for BTC/USD?

Being in a range, Bitcoin cannot move above the support line. As buyers try to continue the upward movement above the resistance level, the cryptocurrency asset is trapped in a small range. If buyers manage to break above the resistance at $23,000 and $24,000, Bitcoin will reach the next price level at $25,212.
