The start of this week was moderate for Bitcoin(BTC), as it managed to make limited gains to remain in the $ 10,800 range, and is expected to face some short-term pressure as it is near very difficult resistance levels, but the overall path remains up.
The standard cryptocurrency is approaching an important technical level of $ 11,000, which will open the way for further growth, at the same time it appears that the important psychological level of the market is at $ 12,000, and in the recent past the currency failed several times to overcome this level, which may become an important turning point.

In addition to the epidemic, the US elections are approaching, and it can be said that any candidate will have a clear advantage that threatens to cause new shocks, and in the event of a collapse in the stock market this will lead to a decline in the Bitcoin currency, but the question is whether the currency will return to the same activity that it did after the March correction. ?
