Bitcoin’s Day Prior Moves
On Thursday, Bitcoin BTC to USD decreased by 2.53 percent. Bitcoin concluded the day at $47,665, reversing a 1.05 percent gain from Wednesday.
Following a mixed start to the day, Bitcoin rose to a late morning intraday high of $49,480 before reversing. Bitcoin fell to a late intraday low of $47,543, falling shy of the first significant resistance mark at $50,081.
However, after avoiding the first significant support level at $47,161, Bitcoin returned to $48,000 levels before easing back.
Despite the recent retreat to $41,000 levels, the near-term bullish trend has stayed intact. To develop a near-term negative trend, Bitcoin would need to fall through the 62 percent FIB of $28,814 on a consistent basis.
