For the past month, the price of Bitcoin has been range-bound above the $84,000 support and below the moving averages. The Bitcoin price has remained steady above $84,000, although upward momentum has been limited by resistance near $94,000. Bitcoin has faced selling pressure near $94,000 since breaking through the 21-day SMA barrier. Bitcoin is currently declining after bullish momentum was halted by the 21-day moving average line.
