Bitcoin Price Eyes Steady Recovery

A low was formed near $17,600 before the price started an upside correction. There was a recovery wave above the $18,000 and $18,500 resistance levels. Besides, there was a break above a key bearish trend line with resistance near $19,200 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair.
