BTC/USD

Bitcoin is in a sideways trend. There is no defined trend. At the moment, the key support and resistance levels are 9400.00 and 9900.00, respectively. A trading instrument has the potential for growth. Indicators do not give accurate signals:
- The price is consolidating near 50 MA;
- The MACD histogram is located near the 0 mark.

We recommend opening positions from key levels.

Trading recommendations

If the price fixes above the resistance level of 9900.00, BTC/USD quotes are expected to grow. The movement is tending to 10400.00-11000.00.

Alternative option. If the price fixes below 9400.00, it is necessary to look for entry points to the market to open short positions. The movement is tending to 9000.00-8600.00.

When following positions, one should use a trailing stop.
