Recently, there was a downside correction below the $65,000 support level. There was also a break below a major bullish trend line with support near $63,200 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. The pair is now trading below $63,000 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
A low is formed near $62,050 and it is now consolidating losses. An immediate resistance is near the $63,200 level. It is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $66,982 swing high to $62,050 low.
The 100 hourly SMA is also positioned just above the $63,200 level. A clear break above the $63,200 resistance could open the doors for a fresh increase. The next major resistance sits near the $64,500 level, above which the price might rise towards the $66,000 level.
The $64,500 resistance is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $66,982 swing high to $62,050 low. Any more gains may possibly call for a new all-time high above the $67,000 level in the near term.
If bitcoin fails to clear the $63,200 resistance zone, it could extend its downside correction. An immediate support on the downside is near the $62,200 level.
The first major support is now forming near the $62,000 level. A break below the $62,000 support may possibly push the price towards the $60,000 support zone.
