Bitcoin Opens 2020 With Untypical Stability: Tuesday’s Crypto Market Watch

Bitcoin marked the end of 2019 at around $7,150, which is a notable increase of over 90% since January 1st.  Looking at the price on a smaller time frame, BTC has decreased by 1% in the last 24 hours and is currently trading at $7,190.

Just yesterday, the largest cryptocurrency attempted to break the $7,400 resistance but to no avail. Part of the reason could be related to the CME price gap at around $7,300, and as it often happens, it was filled in less than 24 hours.

If BTC is to increase, it has to break the $7,400 resistance line and $7,700 would follow next. However, if bears take charge, the most notable support lies at $7,000, followed by $6,800 and $6,500.
