Bitcoin (BTC) Price Analysis On The Weekly ChartThe previous week saw many altcoins produced over 200% gains over the past 7 days of breaking out of their range-bound movement, as many believe more hope is returning to the crypto space.
The new week hasn’t kicked in like the last as most altcoins, including BTC, have all begun to look shaky, dropping off from their weekly highs, including the price of Ethereum (ETH) and Bitcoin (BTC) suffering a major price retracement back to a region of $1,300 and $18,000 respectively.
Still, the price of BTC has looked after breaking below its previous all-time high that has continued to serve as a support and demand zone for months now, holding off the price from sell-offs. The price of BTC retesting the support at $18,000 is not good for the market as this would weaken this region for bears to push the price lower.
The price of BTC needs to rally off this region to look safe and avoid dropping below its weekly lows, as this would affect the general market sentiment.
Weekly resistance for the price of BTC – $19,500.
Weekly support for the price of BTC – $18,000 – $16,000.
