Support Levels: $40,000, $39,000, $38,000
Soon after the July 31 uptrend, Bitcoin price rallied to $42,400 and the price movement becomes insignificant. The king coin would have resumed upside momentum if the bulls have broken the $40,000 to $42,451 resistance zones convincingly. On the upside, if Bitcoin rebounds above the 21-day SMA support, the market will rise and rally above the $42,451 resistance level. This will signal the resumption of the uptrend. BTC/USD will reach its target price of $45,000. On the other hand, Bitcoin will fall as the market reaches the overbought region. The downtrend will resume to the low of $36,000.
