Bitcoin Price Support and Reversal

- $10,000
- $9800
The $9800 support area has gained more significance due to the fact that once the price reached the area it created a long lower wick and immediately moved back upward.
Additionally, while the support area of $10,000 has been broken, the price has not reached a close below it.
Looking at the 15-minute chart, we can see that the movement during the long lower wick is very similar to a morning star, which is considered a bullish reversal pattern.
It was followed by a bullish engulfing candle, indicating that the price might soon begin an upward move.
Bullish Divergence
In order to better analyze the possibility of a reversal, we have incorporated the RSI into the analysis.
