A swing high was formed at $4,275 and later the price declined. There was a break below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,695 swing low to $4,450 swing high.
The price even traded below the $4,100 support and the 100 simple moving average (2-hours). More importantly, the price is now testing a key contracting triangle pattern with support at $4,000 on the same chart.
A close below the $4,000 support and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $3,695 swing low to $4,450 swing high is needed for sellers to push the price further lower.
The next main support on the downside is at $3,880, below which the price could test the $3,600 support area. On the upside, an initial resistance is at $4,075 and the 100 simple moving average (2-hours).
Therefore, to rebound in a positive way toward $4,500, bitcoin price must initially break the $4,075 resistance. Above the $4,100 resistance, the key barrier for BTC buyers is near the $4,275 swing high, above which the price is likely to accelerate above $4,400 in the near term.
