Bitcoin Price Gains Pace
Bitcoin formed a base above the $34,000 zone and it started a steady increase. BTC broke the $35,000 and $36,000 resistance levels to move into a positive zone.
There was a break above a major bearish trend line with resistance near $36,000 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. The pair climbed above the 50% Fib retracement level of the key decline from the $40,420 swing high to $33,630 low.
The price even broke the $37,000 resistance zone. However, the bears are fighting near the $38,000 level. It seems like the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the key decline from the $40,420 swing high to $33,630 low is acting as a resistance.

On the upside, an immediate resistance is near the $37,500 level. The first major resistance is near the $38,000 level and the recent high. A clear break above the $38,000 zone could set the pace for a larger increase. The next major resistance is near the $40,000 level. An intermediate resistance could be near the $38,800 level.
Dips Supported in BTC?
If bitcoin fails to clear the $38,000 resistance, it could correct lower. An initial support on the downside is near the $36,500 level.
The first major support is near the $36,000 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. If there is a downside break below the $36,000 support, the price could decline towards the $35,200 support zone in the coming sessions. Any more losses could clear the path for a retest of the $34,000 level.
Technical indicators:
