Bitcoin had witnessed a strong 8% price surge over the past 3-days which allowed the cryptocurrency to climb back above the $7,000 level. However, Bitcoin is now struggling with resistance at $7,174 which is provided by a bearish .618 Fib Retracement level. It must break this resistance and higher resistance at $7,400 if it would like to make a move toward $8,000.

This rebound is not surprising when we consider the fact that the Bitcoin block halving is just a short 23 days away now.
