Bitcoin Gold analysis

Bitcoin Gold is back under heavy downside pressure after recently finding strong technical resistance from the $14.00 level.

Bitcoin Gold analysis shows that the cryptocurrency could decline towards the $7.00 level before staging a meaningful recovery. 

Bitcoin Gold medium-term price trend

Bitcoin Gold has been under intense selling pressure this week, after the cryptocurrency was forcefully rejected from the $14.00 level earlier this month.

The BTG/USD pair is now trading below its 200-day moving average, and is trading well-below the key $10.00 level. 

Bitcoin Gold analysis

Bitcoin Gold technical analysis shows that a bearish double-top pattern has formed on the daily time frame, which is placing heavy technical pressure on the BTG/USD pair.

The daily time frame highlights that Bitcoin Gold has an area of untested demand, around the $7.00 level, which bears may soon target.

It is also noteworthy that the mentioned time frame also shows that the presence of bearish MACD price divergence has now been eradicated.

Bitcoin Gold short-term price trend

Bitcoin Gold price analysis over the short term shows that the cryptocurrency has a bearish short-term bias while trading above the $11.30 level.

The four-hour time frame shows that a bearish wedge pattern breakout has occurred, with the $6.00 level the overall bearish target.

Bitcoin Gold analysis

The 78.6 Fibonacci retracement level of the current 2020 high to the 2019 low is found at the $6.60 level. 

Ideally, the latest decline in Bitcoin Gold should not exceed the 78.6 Fibonacci retracement level to keep the medium-term bullish case alive for the cryptocurrency.

More conservative traders may wait for the BTG/USD pair to recover back above its 200-day moving average before attempting to buy the cryptocurrency again. 

Bitcoin Gold technical summary

Bitcoin Gold technical analysis suggests that the cryptocurrency could fall towards the $7.00 to $6.60 support area. The BTG/USD pair has now turned technically bearish across both the short and medium-term.
