The price of BTC has continued to show strength, trying to break above $20,500 despite being rejected; the BTC price needs to break this area acting as resistance for bulls to have the chance of pushing the price higher to a region of $22,000.

The price of BTC found its daily low at $19,500; as the price bounced off from that region, BTC’s price has remained strong, trading above $19,000, not allowing bears to take the price lower. 

Despite being rejected recently from the $20,500 mark, BTC price has shown great bullish strength, not retesting the support region of $19,000 as this would favor bears.

The price of BTC is trading at $20,100 below the daily 50-day and 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA).

The 50 and 200 EMA correspond to prices of $22,200 and $30,000, respectively, acting as resistances for the price of BTC to trend higher. If the BTC price breaks and holds above the $22,200 corresponding to the 50 EMA, we could see the price trending higher to $23,000.

If BTC’s price fails to break above its resistances, then prices would find more momentum at its support of $19,000 or even lower.

Daily (1D) resistance for the BTC price – $22,200, $30,000.

Daily (1D) support for the BTC price – $19,000.
