Bitcoin extended the gains above $6,520 before grinding to a sudden halt short of $6,530. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $6,503. The buyers are battling to ensure that there is slide below $6,500; a move that is likely to break down further past the trend line support towards the support at $6,440.

The target for Bitcoin in the short-term is $6,700 while the coveted level at $7,000 will place Bitcoin on a trajectory towards $10,000 as predicted by for Goldman Sachs partner Mike Novagratz. A look at the chart shows Bitcoin price trading above the moving averages. Besides, the MACD at 27.87 is a strong buy signal. Likewise, the RSI is sending positive signals in the short-term. In the meantime, the price is making a nice bullish move above $6,509.
