Bitcoin's recent price action has been marked by a failed attempt to clear resistance near $79,500. The cryptocurrency's price has pulled back, with sellers stepping in and pushing the price below $78,000.
The current trading range for Bitcoin is defined by support around $76,500 and resistance near $78,000. A daily close above $78,000 would improve the setup and open the path toward $78,500 and $79,500.
However, a confirmed breakdown below $76,500 would shift momentum in favor of sellers and increase the risk of a move toward $75,500 and $74,200. Bitcoin's short-term price action will likely be influenced by the outcome of these key levels.
