Dips in BTC are limited?
If Bitcoin does not continue to rise above the $44,500 resistance level, it may begin a downward trend. On the downside, there is immediate support near $43,800.
The next significant support is seen near $43,150. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the swing low of $41,573 to the high of $44,770. If the price breaks below the $43,850 support level, it may struggle. The next level of support is near $42,800, or the 100 hourly simple moving average, below which there is a risk of a sharp drop in the near term. Good luck.
