Bitcoin Rallies above $9,500, Builds Strength on Market Surge

Updated: The king coin rebounded twice after days of tight consolidation. BTC price was earlier narrowed between $9,100 and $9,200 as price consolidation reached its peak level.

Yesterday, July 22, the coin rebounded as the price reached a high of $9,642. In recent times, the $9,200 support has been holding for the upside range trading. Nevertheless, the recent rebound has reached the overbought region of the market. There is a likelihood of price retracement as the coin reached the overbought region of the market.  

The uptrend will resume after the initial retracement. Bitcoin upward move is likely as long as the $9,200 support holds. Besides the $9,300 and $9,400 resistances have been breached. This will pave the way for price fluctuation between $9,300 and $9,800 to retest the $10,000 overhead resistance. In the meantime, the bulls are still battling the resistance at $9,800. BTC will drop to $9,200 if the bulls fail to break the $9.800 resistance.
