  • Bitcoin dropped by a total of 5% today as the cryptocurrency falls beneath $7,000.
  • Bitcoin was struggling with the resistance at $7,400 over the last 4-days which caused it to roll over and drops as low as $6,800 today.

Bitcoin rolled over today as it dropped by a total of 5%, causing it to fall back beneath the $7,000 and drop as low as $6,765 before rebounding higher. The cryptocurrency found strong support at this level around $6,800 which had provided much resistance previously.

The cryptocurrency is in a critical position right now with the next few days dictating the direction that it will head over the next 2 weeks. A drop beneath $6,800 could be detrimental to Bitcoin as it would lead the cryptocurrency back toward the $6,000 level. However, with the upcoming Bitcoin halving in 30-days, it is unlikely that Bitcoin will remain beneath $7,000 for very long.

Market Overview

Taking a look at the daily chart above, we can clearly see Bitcoin struggling at the $7,400 level over the past 4-days of trading. It rolled over today to drop beneath support at $7,174 and $7,000 to reach the current support at $6,800.

More specifically, we can see Bitcoin actually found support at $6,765 which is provided by a short term .236 Fibonacci Retracement level.

Short term prediction: Bullish

Bitcoin still remains bullish in the short term but a break beneath $6,800 would turn it neutral.

If the sellers do push beneath $6,765, we can expect support at $6,500, $6,320 (.382 Fib Retracement), $6,200, and $6,000.

On the other side, resistance lies at $7,000, $7,174, $7,400, $7,676, and $8,000.
