BTC/USD Is Stuck between $53,000 and $58,000 as Bears and Bulls Continue Unending Price Tussles

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Prediction – May 7, 2021
Since May 1, BTC/USD upward moves have been restricted below $58,000 high. Bitcoin now fluctuates between $53,000 and $58,000 price levels. Bitcoin bulls have retested the $58,000 resistance level on four occasions but unable to break it. BTC price is now falling after the last rejection.

Resistance Levels: $65,000, $70,000, $75,000
Support Levels: $50,000, $45,000, $40,000

BTC price is falling on the downside after rejection from the $58,000 resistance zone. Yesterday, the king coin dropped to $55,500 support and pulled back to retest the $57,000 high before resuming the downward move. Selling pressure will persist if price breaks below the moving averages. The market will fall and revisit the previous low at $53,000. On the other hand, if price falls and finds support above the moving averages, the uptrend will resume. The downtrend becomes necessary because buyers fail to break the $58,000 resistance. A breakout at the $58,000 resistance will propel price to reclaim the $58,000 support. The bullish momentum will extend to the $60,000 psychological price level. In essence, the resumption of upside momentum begins when the BTC price is above the $58,000 support. Today, the market has declined to $55,896 and there are indications of a further downward move.
