A low was formed at $57,124 and the price is now consolidating losses. There was a minor recovery wave, but the price remained well below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $60,954 swing high to the $57,124 low.

Bitcoin is now trading below $60,000 and the 100 hourly Simple moving average. There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $58,400 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair.

On the upside, the price could face resistance near the $58,000 level. The first key resistance is near the $58,400 level and the trend line. A clear move above the $58,400 resistance might send the price further higher in the coming sessions.

The next key resistance could be $59,040 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $60,954 swing high to the $57,124 low. A close above the $59,040 resistance might spark more upsides. In the stated case, the price could rise and test the $60,000 resistance.
