Bitcoin Broke Above The Multi-Week Resistance; What’s Next

Bitcoin saw a 2% increase in its value over the 24 hour period. After reaching the $37,000 level, the price of Bitcoin saw some relief. As broader markets started to recover Bitcoin’s price action moved on a north-bound journey.

Currently, Bitcoin’s prices were trading in a tightly consolidated region because the coin did not manage to go past the $39,800 price mark. The market is still too young to know whether the bulls will resurface completely.

If demand doesn’t recover considerably, then the digital asset could fall back to the $38,000 price level,  which is acting as a support level for the coin. This is a good sign, as Bitcoin managed to surpass its resistance line for several weeks.

Bitcoin may reclaim the $40,000 level if bulls maintain their pressure. Bitcoin traders must stay on the market in order to trade to the upside.
