Bitcoin Surges to $32,850 High, Can Bulls Sustain the Upturn?

The price of Bitcoin (BTC) has risen to a high of $32,850 after a strong surge above the $29,400 support level. Today, the cryptocurrency is consolidating above the $32,000 support for further upside momentum.

In the previous price action, bitcoin nearly crashed to the lows of $28,000 and $20,000. However, the bulls bought the dips as Bitcoin bounced back above the $29,400 support. On the upside, the current bullish momentum is likely to extend to the $34,000 high.

However, BTC/USD may face resistance at the resistance zone between $34,400 and $35,000. Nonetheless, the BTC price can continue to rise to the high at $37,000 if the bulls break the resistance zone at $35,000. If the buyers can not break the $35,000 resistance zone, Bitcoin will fall again. The bears will try to bring Bitcoin down to the lows of $28,000 and $20,000. In the meantime, Bitcoin is trading above the $32,000 support for a possible upside move.
