BTC/USD – Daily Chart

Following the failure of the bulls to break the $48,192 resistance, Bitcoin declined to $44,234 low and resumed a sideways trend. Since April 1, the largest cryptocurrency has been fluctuating between $45,400 and $48,000 price levels. Today, the BTC price has declined and found support above $44,404 low. However, if the bears break below the current support or the moving averages, the market will further decline to $40,544 low.

The crypto will rise to revisit the previous highs if the current support holds. On the upside, a rebound above the breakout level of $45,400 will propel BTC’s price to break the initial resistance at $47,000 and rally to the $48,000 overhead resistance. A break above the overhead resistance will catapult Bitcoin to the high above the $52,000 high.
