Bitcoin price action has traded within a narrow consolidation over the past weeks. The support at $29,000 was initially broken at the end of last week, indicating that further downside could follow soon.

However, over the weekend, bulls managed to regain control over the market. BTC/USD slowly returned above $29,000 before a strong spike higher was seen early yesterday.

After some initial resistance at the $31,000 mark, Bitcoin broke past it later in the day, reaching as high as the $32,400 mark. Overnight, slight consolidation followed before another attempt to move higher followed today.

Bitcoin price analysis: Conclusion 

Bitcoin price analysis is bearish today as the market has gained over 15 percent from the last swing low. Therefore, BTC/USD should respect the $32,500 next resistance and retrace over the next days.
