BeInCrypto presents our daily morning roundup of crypto news and market changes that you might have missed while you were asleep.
Bitcoin updateBTC increased considerably during the week of July 23 – Aug. 1.
It initially managed to reach a high of $42,599 before creating a long upper wick and closing just below $40,000.
The high was made very close to the 0.382 Fib retracement level (white) when measuring the entire downward movement.
The main support level is found at $30,000. BTC has not reached a close below this price since the beginning of the year. Rather, it has bounced each time it has fallen to that level.
Despite the bounce, technical indicators are still bearish. The MACD has created one higher momentum bar but the signal line is still decreasing. Furthermore, the RSI is at the 50-line and the Stochastic oscillator has made a bearish cross.
Below $30,000, the main support is found at $16,778. This is the 0.786 Fib retracement support level (black).
