    Bitcoin price chart analysis: minor technical setback

    By Nathan Batchelor

    Bitcoin price chart analysis

    Bitcoin eroded its current monthly gains last week, following another failed upside attempt at the psychological $10,000 level.

    Bitcoin price chart analysis shows that as long as bulls continue to defend the $8,700 support level then the recent decline may just be a minor setback.

    Bitcoin medium-term price trend

    Bitcoin slumped back towards the $9,000 support level last week, following yet another major upside rejection from the psychological $10,000 level.

    Due to the positive fundamental surrounding Bitcoin at the moment, it is possible that the latest price decline may be just a temporary setback.

    Bitcoin price technical analysis shows that bulls could still rally the price back towards the $10,000 resistance level while the price trades above the $8,700 level.

    The daily time frame shows that the price is still creating major higher price lows, which indicates medium-term dip-buying interest remains strong.

    Traders should note that a drop below the $8,700 could provoke strong technical selling towards the $8,000 and possibly $7,000 levels.

    The difference between trading assets and CFDs
    The main difference between CFD trading and trading assets, such as commodities and stocks, is that you don’t own the underlying asset when you trade on a CFD.
    You can still benefit if the market moves in your favour, or make a loss if it moves against you. However, with traditional trading you enter a contract to exchange the legal ownership of the individual shares or the commodities for money, and you own this until you sell it again.
    CFDs are leveraged products, which means that you only need to deposit a percentage of the full value of the CFD trade in order to open a position. But with traditional trading, you buy the assets for the full amount. In the UK, there is no stamp duty on CFD trading, but there is when you buy stocks, for example.
    CFDs attract overnight costs to hold the trades (unless you use 1-1 leverage), which makes them more suited to short-term trading opportunities. Stocks and commodities are more normally bought and held for longer. You might also pay a broker commission or fees when buying and selling assets direct and you’d need somewhere to store them safely.
