Bitcoin’s price gained momentum as it approached the $23,500 resistance level. BTC surpassed $23,800 but could not break through the $24,000 resistance zone.

A new swing high was set near $23,950, and the price corrected to the downside. The price fell sharply beneath the $23,500 and $23,200 support levels. Furthermore, on the hourly chart of the BTC /USD pair, there was a breach below a significant bullish trend line with support near $23,000.

The price has created a low near $22,519 and is now reversing losses. Bitcoin trades below the $23,200 mark and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

It is trading close to the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the latest slide from the swing high of $23,950 to the low of $22,519. Near the $23,000 level, there is immediate resistance. The next key resistance is near the $23,200 level, which corresponds to the 100 hourly simple moving average.

The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent slide from the $23,950 swing high to the $22,519 low is also close to the $23,250 zone, beyond which the price may begin a powerful rise. In the aforementioned scenario, the price might jump to $23,650. The next degree of resistance might be around $24,000. Any further gains push the bitcoin price above the $25,000 mark.
