BTC/USD – Daily Chart

The king coin is presently stuck between the $48,000 and $52,000 price level. In early March, Buyers have been making concerted efforts to push Bitcoin price to the previous highs. On March 1, the bulls broke the $50,000 psychological price level but the price made a pullback to the $48,000 support. This propels Bitcoin to rally to the $52,000 resistance. The bull could not sustain the bullish momentum above the $52,000 high because of intense selling pressure. Today, Bitcoin is facing another rejection at the $52,000 resistance as bulls fail to break the recent high. A breakout above the $52,000 will push the BTC price to $58,000 high. Presently, the BTC is falling as the market resumed a range-bound movement.
