The ability of the bulls to initiate a new upside move may lead to the barrier level close to $65,250. The initial key barrier level may be encountered at $65.5k, while the immediate major barrier level may be encountered at $66k.
The ability of the bulls to push BTC clearly past the barrier level at $66k may bring about a steady move to the upside and prompt more upswings. In such a situation, BTC may be pushed higher for a visit to the barrier level at $66.5k. If there are any additional gains, the bulls may be able to pave the way for a move toward the barrier level at $67.5k over the coming few sessions.
On the other hand, the failure of the bulls to push BTC clearly past the barrier area at $65,250 could empower the bears to keep its performance towards the downside. The next support level on the way downward is close to $64.6k.
The initial key support level is located at $64.2k. The same chart shows the formation of the immediate support level close to $64k. If there are any additional losses, the bears may be able to pave the way for a move toward the support area at $63.2k over the coming few sessions.
