Bitcoin Ready to Move Up, Battles Declining Volatility

Bitcoin Bulls have taken the king coin to retest the $10,000 overhead resistance since May 30. Buyers pushed price to the $9,800 resistance zone and were repelled. BTC retraced to $9.400 and resumed consolidation above the current support.

Bitcoin has been stable above $9,400 in the last 48 hours. It is anticipated that the pair is likely to accelerate to $9,800 as long as price remains above $9,300. In the upside range, BTC fluctuates between $9,300 and $9.800 and then retests the major resistance at $9,950 and $10,000.

Nonetheless, for the past five days, buyers have failed to penetrate the $9,800 to $10,000 resistance zone. The bears are mounting stiff opposition in the resistance zone. However, if BTC falls from $9,400, there is a likelihood of its falling to the $9,000 support and subsequently dropping to $8, 800 low. Conversely, a strong bounce above $9,400 can provide a buying opportunity which can accelerate price to the $10,000 resistance zone. Meanwhile, BTC is consolidating above $9,400.
