Bitcoin price declined further over the weekend smashing its way past the February lows to trade below $6,000. The short-term support was formed at $5,800, but the Bears increased their grip leading to lower corrections marginally below the demand zone at $5,800. This movement gave the buyers an entry during the session on Sunday, where Bitcoin price embarked on a sharp ascend slightly above the resistance level at $6,200.
Currently, the price is consolidating above $6,100 and forming a weak bullish flag pattern. The resistance to the upside is at $6,100, but the Bulls are eying the next target at $6,300 (upper immediate supply zone). The bearish trendline is also offering resistance below $6,200. A stronger support is highlighted at $6,100, but a break past this zone will be stopped by the moving averages above $6,000. The demand zone at $5,800 is still within reach in the medium term especially if the buyers fail to hold ground at $6,100. On the brighter side, the 50 SMA is moving to cross above the longer term 100 SMA which is a signal for more buying entries in the near-term. Besides, the stochastic is pointing north to confirm the bullish trend.
