Bitcoin (BTC) has been on the rise since January 24th and finally broke through a key resistance area on February 4th.
Important resistance zone
Bitcoin has fallen below the descending resistance line since hitting an all-time high on Nov. 10. The move down led to a local low of $32,917 on Jan. 24. BTC has since recovered and is growing.
After three failed tests (red icon), Bitcoin finally broke the descending resistance line on Feb. 4 and created a major bullish candlestick. The move also helped the price move above the $40,800 horizontal resistance area. This zone should now act as a support.
The next areas of resistance are $46,780 and $51,000. These targets are the 0.382 and 0.5 Fib retracement resistance levels, respectively.
