Bitcoin May Drop Below $9,000 as Bulls and Bears Struggle for Price Possession

Bitcoin has maintained its position above $9,000 for the past three weeks as the bulls and the bears were undecided about the direction of price. The market retested the $10,000 supply zone immediately after price rally but the bulls were resisted. Bitcoin is currently fluctuating in a tight range between the $9,000 and $9,600 price levels. The price may go either way as the buyers and sellers tussle for price.

The breakage of any of these levels will eventually determine the direction of Bitcoin. A price break below the $9000 will mean further selling by the bears. Nevertheless, a price penetration through the $9,600 and $10,000 price levels will mean the resumption of an uptrend.
