As of press time, Bitcoin is trading at $65,226.79, marking a 2.90% increase over the past 24 hours. This movement comes amidst a backdrop of technical indicators that offer mixed signals for the cryptocurrency.
The daily price chart for Bitcoin highlights several crucial support and resistance zones. Notably, the primary support level lies around $60,656, a historically robust barrier that has repeatedly supported the price during downturns. Below this, a secondary support zone near $54,000 has also proven pivotal in sustaining bullish momentum.

Conversely, Bitcoin faces immediate resistance at $65,000, a level currently being tested following a recent bounce from the $60,656 support. This zone has historically acted as both a barrier and a launching pad for price movements, highlighting its significance in current market dynamics.
Further up, a secondary resistance at approximately $71,346 presents a formidable obstacle derived from previous market highs. A successful breakout above this level, accompanied by robust trading volume, would signal strong buying interest and bolster the bullish case for Bitcoin in the short term.

However, the 1-week Relative Strength Index (RSI) reading of 57.92 suggests Bitcoin is neither overbought nor oversold at present. Meanwhile, the 1-week Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) trading below the signal line suggests a potential bearish trend in the near future.
