Bitcoin (BTC) Technical Outlook
Bitcoin hovers around the $37,168 mark, encountering closest resistance at $37,585. Increased demand might catalyze a bullish cross for Bitcoin to challenge the $38,900 mark. Further upside breakout might push Bitcoin towards the level of $40,800.
On the other side, the massive support zones remain near $36,400, and losing this footing will translate to more declines to $34,400. The 50-day exponential moving average at $37.5K might be Bitcoin’s turning point. For that reason, market participants need to watch $37.5K for upcoming actions.
