Bitcoin Faces Key Resistance Level as Momentum Shows Signs of Fatigue

Bitcoin's recovery from its 52-week low has been a sustained grind higher, but the pace has begun to narrow. The price action since recovering off the low near $60,074 has seen a fast run-up, but momentum expansion has started to flatten.

The cryptocurrency's proximity to the $73,107 resistance level, combined with early signs of momentum deceleration, makes this setup one of the more telling chart junctures of the past several weeks. Bulls have reclaimed the shorter moving averages and are now pressing directly into that ceiling.
