At the moment, BTC/USD quotes are consolidating. Bitcoin is testing the resistance level of 10800.00. The round level of 10000.00 is the key support. Indicators do not send accurate signals:
- The price has crossed 200 MA;
- The MACD histogram is in the positive zone but has begun to decline.

We recommend opening positions from key levels.

Trading recommendations

If the price fixes above the level of 10800.00, further growth of BTC/USD quotes is expected. The target level of movement is 11400.00-12000.00.

Alternative option. If the price fixes below the round level of 10000.00, you need to look for entry points to the market to open short positions. The movement is tending to 9500.00-9000.00.

When tracking positions, one should use a trailing stop.
