Bitcoin Barely Hangs on After Dropping to Support Levels

The Bitcoin price had been moving to the upside since reaching a local low of $11,367 on Aug 22. The rally continued until Aug 24, when BTC seemingly broke out from the $11,700 resistance area.

However, the price reached the 0.382 Fib level of the entire previous decline, was rejected, and has fallen back below the area since. The move was combined with an RSI decline below 50 and a drop in the MACD, both considered bearish signs.

Bitcoin was rejected by an important Fib level and has begun to fall. The price has broken down from a short-term ascending support line but is still holding on to longer-term support. Bitcoin has likely begun the final wave of a correction.
