Bitcoin Bulls Buy the Dips as It Holds Above $18,200 Support

The price of Bitcoin (BTC) is in a downward correction as the largest cryptocurrency hovers above the $18,200 support.

Bitcoin price long term forecast: bearish

In the last four days, sellers have retested the $18,200 support twice to bring Bitcoin lower. With each retest, the bulls will buy the dips. On the lower time frame, the candlesticks show protruding tails on September 19 and 22. 

The long candlesticks show strong buying at lower price levels. On September 19, the BTC price rallied from the $18,200 level but failed to break the $20,000 level. Yesterday, the BTC price resumed its upward correction and regained the previous highs. If buyers push the cryptocurrency above the 21-day line SMA, the BTC price will rise to the 50-day line SMA. However, a break above the moving average lines will catapult the bitcoin price to the upper resistance of $25,205. At the time of writing, BTC/USD is trading at $18,860.

What is the next direction for BTC/USD? 

Bitcoin is trading below the moving average lines, which makes it vulnerable to a decline. Buyers have defended the current support twice, while sellers are trying to break the $18,200 support. Today, bitcoin is moving up. The upward movement will accelerate if the price rises above the 21-day line SMA. However, the downtrend will continue if the sellers break the $18,200 support.
