BeInCrypto presents our daily morning roundup of crypto news and market changes that you might have missed while you were asleep.
Bitcoin price
BTC has been increasing since bouncing above the $31,400 horizontal support area on June 22. So far, it has managed to reach a high of $36,600, doing so on June 29.
The upward movement was preceded by significant bullish divergence in the MACD, RSI, and Stochastic oscillator. However, neither has a bullish reading yet. The RSI is just below 50 and the MACD signal line is still negative. Furthermore, the Stochastic oscillator has already made a bearish cross.
The BTC price fell yesterday but did not create a bearish engulfing candlestick. Nevertheless, it seems to have resumed its downward movement today.
The main resistance area is at $40,550. This is a horizontal resistance and the 0.382 Fib retracement level.
