Bitcoin price technical picture
Bitcoin price has the potential to break the short-term resistance at $6,600 and the bearish trendline mentioned earlier. BTC/USD will continue to use the 100 SMA as a support in the medium-term. Moreover, the gap between the 50 SMA and the 100 SMA is narrowing which could signal more buyers to find an entry. The stochastic is facing upwards and is at 56% confirming the bullish trend. Both the ascending trendline and the zone at $6,500 will prevent declines into the $6,400 range.
