An initial support on the downside is near the $ 18,410 level. It is close to the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the recent advance from the swing low of $ 17,950 to the high of $ 18,550. 

Moreover, on the BTC / USD pair’s hourly chart, a large upward channel is forming with support around $ 18,270. Channel support is close to the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the recent advance from a swing low of $ 17,950 to a high of $ 18,550. On the other hand, channel resistance at $ 18,655 is short-term resistance.

The first serious resistance for the bulls lies near the $ 18,810 level. A successful break above the $ 18,810 level could trigger a strong upward move, and Bitcoin could rise above $ 19,000 and even $ 19,200.

Another drop in BTC?

If Bitcoin fails to overcome the breakout resistance at $ 18,800, there is a risk of another decline. An initial support on the downtrend is near the $ 18,250 level or the channel’s lower trendline.

A clear break below the channel support level could lead to a sustained decline to $ 18,000. The next significant support below the $ 18,000 level is near the $ 17,400 level and the 100-hour simple moving average.
