There was a move above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $63,400 swing high to the $61,000 low.

The first major resistance could be $62,500. The next key resistance could be $63,000. A clear move above the $63,000 resistance might send the price higher. The main resistance now sits at $63,500. If there is a close above the $63,500 resistance zone, the price could continue to move up. In the stated case, the price could rise toward $65,000.
Another Drop In BTC?If Bitcoin fails to climb above the $62,500 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Immediate support on the downside is near the $61,550 level and the 100 hourly Simple moving average.
