Bitcoin price has advanced beyond $500 across all exchanges and we now expect price to make its way toward $550 and react to this strong support and resistance level.
The current level of price, just below $525 (blue horizontal line), had acted as support and resistance during 2013 and 2014. We could, therefore, expect the market to grapple with this level before advancing to $550 (orange).
Like most price charts, the bitcoin price chart tends to retrace trending moves by 50%. The level from which such a price correction will occur remains to be seen. It may be that the past two days’ string advance warrants a correction from the current S&R level (blue), or else it may happen at $550 (orange) or $600 (red).
