    BTC/USD Analysis

    The price has been unable to recover by much from its sudden and dramatic fall a couple of weeks ago. The price is in a long-term consolidating triangle, but the key thing here is really the fact that the crucial resistance levels have held. The support level at $6,171 looks likely to be very strong as it is confluent with the supportive trend line from the triangle, whereas the higher support at $6,416 looks much weaker. In fact, I think it is likely to break down, which should trigger a further fall. Therefore, I would be bearish today following a strong reversal at $6,569 of after the price gets established below $6,416.

    There is nothing important due today regarding the USD.
