Bitcoin Rebounds but Fails to Jump the Hurdle at $21,012

The price of Bitcoin (BTC) has been moving positively in the last 48 hours. Yesterday, the uptrend rose to a high of $21,000. Today, the uptrend has stopped as the cryptocurrency falls back to the previous low.

The BTC price reached the overbought zone shortly after breaking through the resistance at $20,000. If Bitcoin turns down from the high at $21,000, it will fall above the support at $20,100. The cryptocurrency will likely continue a new uptrend and retest or break through resistance at $21,000 and $22,794. Conversely, if the bears break below the $20,000 support, Bitcoin will decline and fall into the $18,800 and $19,900 range.
