Bitcoin price action has seen a strong advance over the past month. After finding support at $29,500 on the 20th of July, BTC/USD rallied by more than 70 percent and set a new high slightly above $50,000 on the 23rd of August.

From there, a retracement to the $46,500 mark was seen last week. Over the weekend, BTC rallied from the support and set a lower high below $50,000. What followed was another retracement to the $46,500 support over the past days.

Overall, as long as the support holds, we expect the Bitcoin price to pivot higher again. Once it does, the next major resistance to break is the $50,000 previous high.

Bitcoin Price Analysis: Conclusion 

Bitcoin price analysis is bullish for today as the market has retested the $46,500 previous support after a slow retracement over the last days. Therefore, we expect BTC/USD to reverse from the support and head towards the $50,000 next major resistance next.
