  In the bitcoin price weekly forecast, we discussed the chances of a drop to $10,500 against the US Dollar. The BTC/USD pair did follow a bearish path this week below $11,500 and 100 hourly simple moving average. As a result, there was a bearish break below the $11,200 and $11,000 support levels. Moreover, the price weakened more than 6% today and even broke the $10,800 support area.

  Finally, it spiked below the $10,500 level and traded to a new weekly low at $10,463. It is currently consolidating losses above $10,500. An immediate resistance is near $10,580 plus the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $10,967 high to $10,463 low. On the upside, the first key resistance is near the $10,720 level. It represents the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $10,967 high to $10,463 low.

  If there is an upside break above the $10,700 and $10,800 levels, the price could correct higher towards the $11,000 level. The next hurdle could be $11,080 plus the 1.236 Fib extension level of the recent decline from the $10,967 high to $10,463 low.
