Bitcoin May Lose the Psychological Price Level of $10,000

After the recent crash on September 3, Bitcoin has been fluctuating above the psychological support level of $10,000. The bears failed to break the current support convincingly on September 3 and 5 as price corrected upward.

Today, BTC is trading above $10,170 at the time of writing. As the market continues its fluctuation, a sharp rebound above $10,000 will propel price to break the $10,600 resistance. 

And if the momentum extends above $11,000, the upside momentum will resume. However, if the bullish scenario fails to hold, sellers may attempt to break below the $10,000 support. BTC will slump to $9,800 if the current support is broken. Meanwhile, sellers are making frantic efforts as they come close to breaking the current support. However, if the bearish scenario fails, BTC will be range-bound between $10,000 and $10,600.
