The price managed to surpass the first hurdle, which was the 23.6% retracement level from the recent drop between the highest point of $29,180 and the lowest point of $24,800. However, there are challenges ahead around $26,600. Currently, it’s still trading below $26,500 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.
Also, there’s a positive trend line forming in the short term, showing support at around $26,050 on the hourly chart for the BTC/USD pair. If Bitcoin can stay above this trend line, it might try to go up in value.
The first challenge ahead is close to $26,400. After that, the bigger challenge is at around $26,500 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. If the price can move clearly above this moving average, it could initiate a rise towards the $27,000 resistance level.

The price level of $27,000, which is halfway between the highest point at $29,180 and the lowest point at $24,800, might work as a barrier. If the price can close above this $27,000 point, it could begin to rise and aim for the next resistance at $27,500. If it continues to gain, it might even pave the way for a bigger increase towards $28,150.
BTC Could Experience Another Drop?
If Bitcoin can’t get past the $26,500 hurdle, it might keep going down. The first support if it goes down is around $26,000 and the trend line.
The next important support comes in at about $25,600. If the price goes below this $25,600 level, it could enter a more bearish situation. If that happens, the price could head towards $25,000.
