A high was formed at $70,100, and the price recently corrected some gains.

A close above the $69,550 resistance might send the price further higher. In the stated case, the price could rise and test the $70,000 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $70,500 level. The next barrier for the bulls could be $70,850 and $71,200.<\/p>\n<h2>Downside Break In BTC?<\/h2>\n<p>If Bitcoin fails to rise above the $68,800 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Immediate support is near the $67,400 level. The first major support is near the $66,550 level.<\/p>\n<p>The next support is now near the $65,000 zone.
