Bitcoin Price Analysis

Bitcoin price started a fresh decline after it failed to clear the $45,000 resistance. BTC declined below the $43,500 and $42,000 support levels to enter a short-term bearish zone.

There was also a move below the $41,200 level. A low was formed near $40,150 and the price is now attempting a fresh increase. The bulls were able to push the price above the $41,200 level. The price is now above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward wave from the $44,754 swing high to the $40,150 low.

The next major resistance might be near the $43,500 zone or the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the downward wave from the $44,754 swing high to the $40,150 low.
