The first major support on the downside is near the $ 25,8000 level. A major bullish trendline is also forming on the 4-hour chart of the BTC / USD pair with support near USD 25,400.
The 50% fib retracement level of the recent surge from $ 24,532 to $ 26,991 is also near the trendline zone. On the upside, the $ 27,000 level is an initial resistance zone. A clear break above the $ 27,000 zone could open the doors for a push towards the $ 28,000 and $ 28,800 levels. Further upside moves could set the pace for a test of the key $ 30,000 level.
