BTC/USD News Affecting Sentiments Today

Going Ahead 25th and 26th January 2021

This new uptick since Sunday has certainly bolstered hopes to touch the new resistance levels of $37,175. Be ready to keep an eye on buying levels for BTC to zoom in at levels of $34,000. With new sentiments rising in BTC seems to have taken a slight beating since morning as it has moved from $33,700 levels to $33,289 within 45 minutes.

This would now bring the pivot levels to $33,082 and 23.6% FIB, and the support levels of $28,227 could come into play. However, the second level of support is not expected to be tested at $24,134. This can be a short-term fall in today’s trade with fundamentals of the momentum staying as is. If the market plays out this small bit of news today and comes back to the levels of $33,700, then only one should look at the new resistance levels of $41,000. The remaining day’s trade news will determine the trading calls or tomorrow.
