Bitcoin continues to trade below a valid line of resistance drawn from the token’s record peak of $69,000 in November. The small recovery in January saw a so-called “shooting star” candlestick occur right at the trendline barrier, which pushed prices down by 24% to as low as $32,970 last week. The rebound since has swung Bitcoin back to this trendline, and a break above it will bring into focus the next cluster of Fibonacci resistance -- which is near $40,000.
